Checking Geocode setup

If your district uses the Geocode Map method and address validation, before you run Year-End Processing, make sure geocodes are set up correctly for your district and all grades in the district are mapped to a school for each geocode.

Use the SQL queries to identify possible issues with the geocode map.

= Identifying Geocode/grade combinations not mapped [>>]
= Identifying students with projected school set to None [>>]
= Identifying students set to project to requested school but not projected to any school [>>]
= Identifying students set to project to zoned school but not projected to any school [>>]

Note: Before running these queries, run Next-Year Preparation at least once.

For further information about address validation and geocodes, see About Address Validation [>>]. For further information about Year-End Processing, see Year end [>>].

Identifying Geocode/grade combinations not mapped

If this query returns any results, then the geocode/grade levels returned do not have and associated school map and should be corrected.

To identify geocode/grade combinations that are not mapped to any school:

Identifying students with projected school set to None

Although some students should not be projected to a school for the next year, verify that all the students in the query results are correctly set up to not project to a school.

To identify students whose projected school is set to None:

Identifying students set to project to requested school but not projected to any school

This query identifies students whose projected school is Use requested school but who are not being projected to a school in the planning calendar. Examine the projections for the students in the query results to determine the reason they are not being projected to a school.

To identify students who have a requested school but are not projected to any school:

Identifying students set to project to zoned school but not projected to any school

This query identifies students whose projected school choice is User zoned school but who are not projected to the planning calendar. Typically, this is because the students do not have a geocode for the planning calendar, their geocode is invalid, or their geocode is not mapped to a school for their grade level.

To identify students who are set to project to their zoned school but are not projected to any school:

If the above query identifies any students, use the following subqueries to determine if the students’ geocodes are mapped correctly for their grade level.

Identifying students next-year grade levels
Identifying students assigned geocodes
Determining if students geocodes for their next-year grade level are mapped correctly
