The "Programs" tab on the View Student Data page in jmc Office allows districts to record a student’s participation in state-reportable programs, creating a program history record for each entry that captures the data required for WISEdata reporting.
These records connect student participation in specific educational programs to DPI reporting requirements, helping ensure your district’s data remains accurate, complete, and ready for submission. Keeping program history records up to date also supports compliance with state and federal reporting requirements.
