The purpose of the library user group is to form collaborative relationships and share expertise relative to library and information services among Trumbull and Ashtabula County library/media professionals.  Each meeting offers access to new library-related resources and information.  Specific agendas are tailored to each unique meeting.  You can view previous meetings here.

Fiscal Open Lab

This is a time that NEOMIN’s fiscal staff will available to work with you on any problems or questions that you may have. Some people have asked for a little extra help with EIS Inventory system. This would be a good time for EIS, not a formal training but we will be there to answer questions.

Mass Assigning Course Requests for Next Year Students

These sessions will demonstrate how to mass load course requests onto students in SIS for the purpose of next year scheduling. Both of the following will be explained in detail: 1. Entering course requests in mass, by grade level, and 2. Entering course requests in mass onto students in NEXT school year by creating ad hoc memberships in the current year, and then mass assigning specific course requests onto the same groups of students, in next school year:

For buildings that utilize the Public Module and allow their students to select any course requests ‘online:’ If need be, there will be a brief section of this training that will discuss the slight differences in how ‘publically-viewable courses’ need to be constructed in order for students to see them online and for students to be able to request them online.

When this training is in-person, there will be an Open Lab immediately following the training, and last until 3:00 p.m. if need be.

 

Discipline

This training will cover entering discipline information into SIS, how to generate discipline letters, and generate various discipline reports. 

Elementary Scheduling

These sessions will discuss the process of bulk scheduling elementary students, beginning with bulk adding students into homerooms, updating course sections with teacher and room changes, updating and verifying course groups, and bulk assigning students into appropriate grade level course group sections. We will also review how to individually add homerooms onto students and how to individually schedule a block of courses onto single students, as well as how to generate helpful reports to verify class lists and homeroom lists. Please bring any Master Schedule changes, including teacher names and room numbers, with you, as well as have access to homeroom lists that are electronic and preferably in an Excel format with student names AND student ID numbers.

 

Gifted Reporting

These sessions will provide an overview of gifted processing, including how NEOMIN performs mass updates of gifted screening information, as well as how districts can best enter assessed and identified data for their gifted students and the process of entering program codes for served students. We will also review how to generate helpful reports with which to verify all gifted information, from both StudentInformation and from the Analytics Hub.

Memberships

These sessions will cover adding program codes/memberships to students in StudentInformation. 

Report Card Processing

These sessions will be an overview of the entire report card process for ALL K-12 buildings. We will discuss refreshing GPAs, generating helpful reports to verify grade entry, generating report cards from SIS, as well as generating elementary Standards Based Report Cards from GradeBook, and how to generate various reports that can be helpful to verify student earned marks. Instruction will also be given and explain how to generate an honor roll report in Excel, as well as perfect attendance report generation.

K-12 Pre-scheduling for next school year

These sessions will discuss every part of the pre-scheduling process for ALL grade levels and all buildings. Topics discussed will include mention of what items in StudentInformation have possibly been copied into your building’s 2024-25 school year already, and how and when NEOMIN will copy your students into the next school year. The sessions will also provide a complete overview of how courses should be created (elementary, secondary and CCP courses) and how they should be coded, as well as demonstrate an overview of how course sections (the Master Schedule) should be created and/or updated. We will review how to generate helpful reports that will aid in course and section verification, as well as discuss how to create and utilize course groups (blocks) in the scheduling process, and how to maintain and update homerooms, in StudentInformation. These sessions will also briefly discuss how to transfer new students enrolled in the current year, from current year to next school year, individually.

Secondary Batch Scheduling for next school year

These sessions will not only provide an overview of how the batch scheduler works and how to best utilize it, but we will also discuss various, important ‘next steps’ in the scheduling process, specifically for those buildings that have already added general course requests onto all of their students.

We will demonstrate how to best work from a student’s request screen and ‘hand schedule’ special circumstance students into exact course sections, how to generate request verification reports, as well as what exactly to do before, during, and after the batch scheduler is generated.

A troubleshooting, batch scheduler open lab will take place immediately following the training, in which a building can assess the batch scheduler statistics tabs and certain generated reports in StudentInformation, such as the R426, in order to determine whether course sections may need updated, created, etc., in order to schedule more students into their course requests.

Using Excel to Bulk Assign Hardware and Connectivity Program Codes

Hardware – If your district will provide devices to ALL students in a grade level, the district does not have to report an individual program code for each student in that grade level.  If a device is not being given to each student in a grade level, the appropriate Hardware program code must be reported for each student.

Each district/building needs to determine how they will collect this data for the 2021-22 school year.  Under each student’s ProfileàCustom tab is a field entitled ODE-Device-Student Access.  This field is not school year specific.  A building can use this field to track this information.  However, Hardware program codes STILL need to be reported for each student if a device is not given to each student in the grade level.  

Connectivity - ODE is collecting connectivity information for each student via a Program Code.  For each student, report the level of internet connectivity available for a student to do schoolwork within the student’s primary residence.

Each district/building needs to determine how they will collect this data for the 2021-22 school year.  Under each student’s ProfileàCustom tab is a field entitled ODE-Connect-Internet.  This field is not school year specific.  A building can use this field to track this information.  However, Connectivity program codes STILL need to be reported for each student.

This training will explain how to mass add Hardware and Connectivity program codes to students.
