Common Errors – HQT system input• Teacher has a different name in HQT
• Teacher ID not found in HQT system
• Most common error is that HQT system has not been properly updated with current year’s staff
Teacher of Record (TOR)
• Teacher of Record - Directly instruct, evaluate and assign grades– No other positions can legally assign
grades
• Office aides, nurses, etc. cannot assign grades – please do not assign students to these folks
Common Errors – SAIS system
• Student name mismatch in SAIS
• Student section enrollment without matching Course Section
• Student in SAIS without Student Section Enrollment
• Most common error is the proper student enrollment transaction has not taken place within SAIS
How do AOI students fit into the process?• Online courses usually are open entry/exit
scenarios– Schedule the course as a FY course
• Enroll students with their own specific entry and exit date within that course
• Provide a grade if student completes the course– Exit type
» CF – Content Complete – Full Credit (K-12)» CP – Content Complete – Partial Credit (9-12)» CN – Content Complete – No Credit (K-12)
• Auditing option, elementary» SC – Schedule Change (K-12)» LS – Left the School (K-12)
*Red text = grade required
Common Errors – Enterprise
• Open school without course sections– Contact LEA school finance account analyst to
close/open/modify school operating status
• Most common error is that “official operating status” action has not been completed by LEA
JTED STC Reporting
• Centralized JTED– Report on all students served– Course Code– External Provider
• Satellite JTED– Member district to report students served– External Provider = JTED providing services
FAQs
• What types of classes should be reported?– Any course that includes student enrollments
• How do we handle long-term subs?– Long-term subs will not be validated against HQT if
reported from the Provider Teacher 1 element in STC file.– HQT department advises that if a long-term sub has
been attached to a school for 4 consecutive weeks, then should be added to said school within HQT
• Is STC data the same as SAIS data?– There are similar SAIS elements represented in STC files,
however, this data is different. – Please see file specification addendum to understand
differences
Where should I be in the process?• Data submission window closes
December 7– Have you mapped your courses?– Have you entered all required STC data inside
your Student Information System?– Have you obtained SRM login credentials?– Have you submitted your first trial
submission?– Have you worked to correct errors?– Have you “sent to state” via SRM?
STC Data at work for you
• Potential uses for STC data– Course impact on student performance– Mobile student tracking and assignments– “On-time” graduation tracking– Dropout early warning system– Prediction of college remediation– Teacher assignment alignment to certification– Teacher education program evaluation– Equality of opportunity to learn– Teacher impact on student performance
