Students who qualify and attend nonpublic schools in Iowa may receive funding from the Iowa Department of Education through an Education Savings Account (ESA). In jmc Office, you can indicate that a student is receiving ESA funding by placing a checkmark in the ESA Funded checkbox on the View Student Data page. Once students are identified, you can generate reports in jmc to quickly access a list of all students in your school who receive ESA funds.
In jmc Office, navigate to the View Student Data page to identify individual students as receiving ESA funds.
Step One: Enter a student’s name in the "Find" field to select the student.
Step Two: Click the "State Rpt" tab to edit state-reportable elements, including the "ESA Funded" designation.
Step Three: Place a checkmark in the "ESA Funded" checkbox to identify the selected student as receiving Education Savings Account funding from the state.
Step Four: Click the "Save" button to update your changes.
Helpful Tip: Save time by using the Edit > Mass Change Fields page to mark all students—or only students in a specific grade level—as ESA Funded.
Fun Fact: Create a list of all students in your school who are receiving ESA funds on the Attendance > Student > Lists page to assist with information requests from the state.
