Pupil Count Report for Membership (Public LEA Only)

This data collection is to count pupils for membership purposes on the third Friday in September and the second Friday in January (Pupil Count). This data collection is only for public LEA's. County Children with Disability Education Board (CCDEB) has a separate report from the Pupil Count report. For instructions on the Pupil Count Report, visit https://dpi.wi.gov/sites/default/files/imce/sfs/pdf/guidelinesforcounting-Febuary-2021.pdf

In the Wisconsin School Finance Portal (WiSFiP) - Pupil Count module, DPI pre-fills counts for most of the pupil count categories. In cases where DPI does not have the data to pre-fill, then LEAs can manually enter the counts in the new Pupil Count module in WiSFiP.

For more information about the relationship between the accountability pupil count and the membership pupil count, visit https://dpi.wi.gov/wisedata/schools/membershipvsenrollment

This endpoint is NOT expected from Choice schools, Independent Charter schools, and State agencies

Sending the receiving services for a student present on a count date for Pupil Count

(For 23-24 SY and later)

On each enrollment covering the count dates, LEAs have to submit receiving services on a count date for Pupil Count on /studentSchoolAssociation (SSA).

  • The Pupil must be in attendance for instruction on the count date; or

  • If absent on the count date, have attended at least one of the days
    before and at least one of the days after the count date and not have
    been enrolled in any other school or have been homeschooled
    during the absence.

The Pupil Count report has separate count dates and count date status than Acountability reporting.
Count Dates:

  • M- TFS (Third friday of september)

  • M-2FJ (second friday of Jan)

  • Milwaukee additonally has M-1FM (First Friday of May)

NOTE: SIS vendors need to ensure that the Count Date Status for accountability is independent from the Count Date Status for membership.

The residencyPeriod is added under the the studentSchoolAssociation (SSA) to avoid the need to end the existing SSA and start a new SSA when the residency information changes in the middle of the school year.

  • If the student is a regular resident student the whole time, then no need to send residencyPeriod, except for part-time resident students (R-Private or R-Home), a residencyPeriod is needed.

  • If the school is a 2R charter, a residencyPeriod is expected with ResidencyStatusDescriptor=R and the Resident LEA ID.

  • residencyStatusDescriptor ‘R’ is sent when a student changes between non-resident and resident, but it isn't strictly necessary.

    • DPI treats any part of the SSA, not covered by a residencyPeriod, as a resident enrollment for that period.

Sending an enrollment record for a student who attended any day before count date absent on the count date and shows up any day after count date.

If the LEA is not aware of any break in the studen’t enrollment, then they should leave the enrollment record open until the student shows up. When the student shows up, then receiving services should be ‘Absent’ on the count dates. If any pupils are absent on the count date, they can still be counted if all of the following conditions are met:

  • they have attended at least one day during the school year prior to the count date;

  • they have attended at least one day during the school year after the count date; and

  • they have remained a resident of the district during the period of absence.

Because the student showed up after TFS, which is before 2FJ, and continues to be enrolled after 2FJ, then countDate receiving services could be Present/Absent.

Sending enrollment record for student who moved to new school within the district but has gap in enrollment because of non-school days

If student has two enrollments: one from District A School A, and another from District A school B

At School A, the student is Present on TFS count date, then the enrollment ended before 2FJ. In this case, the Count Date Receving Services for 2FJ should be left blank.

At School B, the student does not have enrollment until after TFS date and is Present on 2FJ. In this case, the Count Date Receiving Services for TFS is left blank, and the Count Date Receiving Services for 2FJ is 'P’.

As long as student qualifies for membership, the attendance gap in the enrollment does not change anything.

Sending the receiving services on an alternative count date for Pupil Count

There can be two basic scenarios--an unplanned situation or a planned event--that would result in an LEA requesting an alternative count date for the statutory-required pupil counts: third Friday in September or the second Friday in January.

  • An unplanned situation, such as weather conditions or other unforeseen events that lead to the district not operating on the standard count date

  • A planned event, approved by the school board where the district is closed and no students will be receiving instruction.

For those cases, the LEA will need to contact DPI’s School Financial Services (SFS) team and explain the situation and specify the alternative date they are requesting. Once the request is approved, then the alternative count date will be used Pupil count inclusion calculations.

The SIS should be able to report/calculate the Pupil count receiving services based on the alternate count date..

For SFS team: Input alternate count date in WiSFiP

DPI calculates count inclusion based on alternate countdate

For testing: student Present on TFS and A on SFJ . LEA uses alternate count date

Sending the count date information for student who has multiple enrollment records within the same LEA and is reported as ‘Not Receiving Services’, but has attendance before and after the count date in the LEA

A student could have multiple enrollment records within the same LEA with only one enrollment covering the count date, but the student was present before and afetr the count date.

Example:
SSA 1 - School A: Present before the TFS count date, but SSA doesn’t cover the TFS count date
SSA 2 - School B: Absent all dates, but SSA covers the TFS count date
SSA 3 - School C: Present after the TFS count date, but SSA doesn’t cover the TFS count date

In this case, the LEA will see a validation message in WISEdata Portal, and needs to review the student attendance and enrollments and override the count date Receiving Services as needed.
