**Enhancements In Progress** To improve the user experience and site functionality, some embedded documents are being updated to linked buttons.
This is the landing page for all technical resources relating to grades for both teacher and admin roles.
The following set of resources are from the Curriculum & Instruction (C&I) departments. We are adding them to the SIS Manual for your reference but the IT department does not maintain the C&I documents. Please contact the department for more information.
FLDOE PK-12 Database Manuals, Data Elements, Appendices, and More
The PK-12 Database manual site provides the resources to show what the state Student Information System reporting formats are and what each data element requires. Each year the state releases new information and updates state reporting requirements. All of the state required fields that we report on in Focus come from this site. For example, if you want to learn about a particular data element from course grades to an appendice that shows an Industry CErtification Identifier, this is the place to look.
FLDOE Course Code Directory (CCD)
The CCD assists counselors, students and parents in schedule planning, provides course specific information including course level and length, and lists appropriate educator certification levels for courses. It allows schools, districts, and the state to identify courses by specific course number, thereby providing analogous information across various levels of administration and consistency in reporting.
Florida Automated System for Transferring Educational Records (FASTER)
The Florida Automated System for Transferring Educational Records (the "FASTER System") provides school districts, state colleges, universities and technical centers with the means to exchange transcripts and other student records electronically. It is an electronic mail system in which the "messages" are the requests for transcripts and the responses to these requests. Both requests and responses must follow predefined record formats and edit specifications.
Considerations Prior to Changing the Teacher of Record
The purpose of this document is to provide Administrators a checklist of items to consider before making changes to the teacher of record for a course in FOCUS.
