Template Description – This template contains the student enrollment and withdrawal transactions at each school within each district across the school year. This template tracks student Mobility and the new Graduation Cohort rate as required by the USDE. Enrollment codes are also used to develop the list of potential dropouts for the subsequent school year’s Dropout Data Collection & Reporting system (DDCS). Submit all enrollment/mobility actions for all students throughout the school year, not just students active at the end of the year. At least one record should exist in this template for every student enrolled in a school within the same district or in a different district at any time during the school year.  For purposes of analysis, most of your students will be coded with an Enrollment Code of E1. (E1’s are students who are in school for the first time during the current school year regardless of start date).
