2. We have a new student – Now what do we do?  Student has completed our registration packet  Have we been provided with a copy of the birth certificate and social security card?  Do we have information from the previous school?

3. Enter the student into your student software system using the information provided to you. Make sure and use the student’s legal name.

4. Request records through TRex from the previous school district. Once received correct student software as needed so that you have the legal name and correct social security number or State ID number.

5. Assign Unique ID once the student has actually been in attendance. Pay special attention to near matches so that duplicate UID numbers are not assigned.

6. Once the students that are in your software have been reconciled with the students who are actually in attendance; submit your first PET file (must be by the end of the third week of school).

7. Run the PET2D100 – PET PID Statement of Discrepancies Compare your information (actual birth certificate and/or social security card) and determine which school has the correct information If your information is correct, contact the previous school and share official documentation so that you are both in agreement
