This indicates the Refresh button was not selected prior to saving the Enrollment Information editor. To populate the enrolled school, LEP status, and grade information on the first page of the printed IEP, follow the steps below in order:
The Least Restrictive Environment (LRE) codes, also known as the Federal Placement Codes, have been added to the Placement editor. The appropriate Federal Placement Code Age Group and Federal Placement Code that align with each placement (e.g., P1, P2) should be selected.
For example, for a Pre-K student moving from an early childhood placement to a school-age placement the following school year:
Infinite Campus will automatically update the Federal Placement Code/LRE Code based on the dates indicated on each placement page.
The new Eligibility and Anticipated 3-Year Reevaluation dates do not automatically update in the IEP if the IEP event was created before the Determination of Eligibility event. In such cases, the most recent Eligibility date and Anticipated 3-Year Reevaluation date must be manually updated in the IEP.
If the IEP was locked with incorrect dates, an IEP revision is required to correct the dates.
For users with access to multiple schools, ensure the student’s current school location and the appropriate year are selected in the toolbar at the top of Infinite Campus.
Caseloads are assigned via the Special Ed Team Members tool. To remove a student, find your name in bold in the Special Ed Team Member tool and add an end date and select Save. If a case manager no longer has access to the student’s Special Ed Team Member tool, please request the school SEIF enter an end date or call the SEMS Helpdesk for assistance.
Case managers should enter an end date on the Case Manager tool and the Special Ed Team Members tool once a student is no longer on their caseload.
At the end of a school year, utilize the End Date of 7/31 of the current year. If you no longer have access to the student, the school SEIF is able to enter the appropriate end date or call the SEMS Helpdesk.
Select “CCSD Programs” as the School from the toolbar at the top of Infinite Campus.
If your name does not appear when selecting ‘Find & Link New Team Member’ in the Special Ed Team Members tool, ensure the student’s school is selected in the School Year and School in the toolbar. If you are a related services provider, ensure CCSD Programs is selected in the toolbar at the top of Infinite Campus.
If the staff name still does not appear, please contact the SEMS Helpdesk at (702) 799-0295 for further assistance.
Progress reports must be locked prior to printing and sending to the parent/guardian. Case managers are responsible for coordinating with related service providers to ensure all goals have progress reported prior to locking. Locking should occur no later than the end of report card distribution day. Please see the Infinite Campus Quick Reference – Creating Progress Reports for more information.
