12. Common Problems with Calendars Common Problems: Submitting 1-12 using Kindergarten calendars and session types. Submitting Kindergarten on Regular Calendars Changing calendars from month to month Calendar changes each month will be restricted and not allowed to go into production Example: Calendar ID 123 Calendar Type R gets submitted Sept, Oct, Nov uploads Jan upload it gets changed to A A DR calendar cannot be used for Alternative Students An Alternative Calendar can not be used in place of a DR calendar Use SA calendar for approved Summer Alternative School programs and SR for Summer Detention School Programs

13. Summer School Reporting All Summer school programs need to be submitted with the following August Manifest only! Cannot be in a cumulative upload Unique Calendar ID (ID cannot be used any other time) Use Your Summer School Numbers Summer Alternative Calendar Type = SA + report in hours Summer Detention Calendar Type = SR + report in days Summer Remediation Calendar Type = SR + report days
