Enrolling returning students who have previously left your district is straightforward with jmc's "Add Student" feature. This intuitive tool streamlines the process by minimizing data entry and ensuring all necessary state reporting information is captured. By simply finding the returning student and filling in the appropriate enrollment information, users can quickly reactivate the student in jmc while maintaining accurate and up-to-date records that spans a student's entire academic history.

Head to Attendance > Student > Add Student to reactivate a student who attended your school in a previous year.

Step One: Select the returning student to enroll by entering the student's name in the "Find" field.

Helpful Tip: Minnesota and Wisconsin schools can reactivate a student on day one of the new school year by placing a checkmark in the student's "Active", "Attendance" and "State Reporting" checkboxes on the "General" tab of the "View Student Data" page.

Step Two: Select a date from the "Day" box to indicate the first day the student is returning to your district.

Helpful Tip: Iowa and Nebraska schools reactivating a student on day one simply select the first day of the academic year from the "Day' box to reinstate a returning student to active status.

Step Three: Enter the appropriate "Entry Code" and other enrollment details using the corresponding fields and drop-down lists to ensure proper state reporting.

Helpful Tip: Additional or unknown information about the student can be entered at a later time on the "View Student Data" page.

Step Four: Click the "Add" button to activate the student's record in the current year.

Helpful Tip: Use the New Student Wizard in jmc to properly add students that are new to your district or head to the Attendance > Student > Re-enter Student page to re-enter a student that has left and is returning during the same school year.
