Basic STS Information
• STS can start with 8th grade students
• STS policies are based off of when a student enters 9th grade
• All Carnegie and Experience credit must be put into STS each year.
• STS works in Beginning School Session Year (BSSY) so 2020-21 would be 2020.
• STS is open from December to October – it normally closes October 1 which ends the year and reopens near December 1 to start the new BSSY.
• Graduation dates before September 1 belong to the previous BSSY so a student that graduates on 8/30/18 belongs to the 2017 BSSY
• You are allowed to work in the current BSSY, but permission must be given to reopen previous school year – please email me the Prior Collection Period Access Request Form

17
Career Option Codes (Pathways)
Any student on the C5, C6, CD, CA diploma paths require a career option code in order to be calculated for graduation.
Note: Any CA student with a blank or incorrect career option code will not be calculated for graduation.
Diploma Pathway Career Option Codes
C5 and C6 A01 – P06
CD CDV
CA R01 – T18
![Page 18: Student Transcript System (STS) January 2021](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012709/61a987d1fe494735d5455f0d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
18
Jump Start 1.0 Graduation Pathways
There are currently 47 official pathways for Jump Start students.
The pathways are considered career option codes in STS (R01-T18)
The pathways are dynamic as they can be modified throughout the year. These changes should always increase student opportunities.
Each pathway description should describe:
• High demand careers related to the pathway
• Courses allowed (pathway specific, universal, and internships)
• Course information – code, credit, and qualifying for CTE/CDF
• Which IBC are associated with the pathway and their accountability point value
• A sample schedule
A list of all the pathways can be found at Jump Start Graduation Pathways
![Page 19: Student Transcript System (STS) January 2021](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012709/61a987d1fe494735d5455f0d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Jump Start 2.0 Graduation Pathways (New)
Jump Start 2.0 are new pathways that are available to freshman of 2020.
To be eligible, the CA student must have a 9th grade entry of 2020 in STS.
The career option codes for JS 2.0 in STS are identified as U01-U13.
A list of all the pathways can be found at Jump Start Graduation Pathways

20
Modifying Pathways, IBCs, or Courses in Jump Start
All LEAs can request a pathway be constructed or modified, have an IBC added to a pathway, or have courses created.
![Page 21: Student Transcript System (STS) January 2021](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012709/61a987d1fe494735d5455f0d/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

STS – GPA Calculations
There are a few GPA calculations and you need to know which one you are using:
1. Overall: calculated based on all transcripts and unweighted scale
2. Local: is supplied by the LEA – we do not calculate that one
3. TU/CA: uses repeat/delete courses and a 5 point scale
4. TJ/TC: uses repeat/delete courses and a 5 point scale
• The quality point is determined by the course code and not the course type.
• Only LOSFA approved course codes are 5s and all the rest are 4s.
• TJ/TC are used by LOSFA for TOPS eligibility and does not round
![Page 23: Student Transcript System (STS) January 2021](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012709/61a987d1fe494735d5455f0d/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
GPA Calculations
23
Overall GPA – now is cumulative and unweighted so all courses except for P and E will be included in the overall gpa calculation
The BOR modified 5 point scale for the diploma path will now be a true 5 point scale. So if a course is identified by LOSFA as a 5 point course, the table below shows you how they will be treated.
Overall Diploma (TU or CA) TOPS (TC or TJ)
A 4.0 5.0 5.0
B 3.0 4.0 4.0
C 2.0 3.0 3.0
D 1.0 2.0 2.0
F 0.0 0.0 0.0
![Page 24: Student Transcript System (STS) January 2021](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012709/61a987d1fe494735d5455f0d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
24
Which Courses are 5 Point Courses
The 5 point courses are determined by LOSFA and can be found in either the core reference table in STS or the Louisiana Believes website in the All Things Jumpstart or Graduation Requirements sections.
Please use the correct course code found here. The course code not the course type is what determines the point value.
Example: Using 120334 English IV and putting course type Honors is not the same as using the English IV Honors.

The Export Summary to Excel Function
This will create an excel spreadsheet for all students listed in the Student Site list. It will display their grade levels, the 3 calculated GPAs (Overall, Diploma, and TOPS), the diploma paths, the career option codes (pathways), FAFSA, GEE (assessment), and Parental Consent. You can apply a Filter to sort out student you need for example:
• Any 12 grader without a grad date or grad date error
• Any CA student without a career option code
• Any CA student without an IBC
• Any student without a FAFSA
• Any student without Parental Consent
• 9th graders with total credits earned

STS – Courses Not Showing Up in Calculation
There are few possible factors that could stop a class from showing up in the calculation:
• A better class was chosen
• The wrong course code was used
• The course is not in the Core Reference Table
• The course was submitted as halves without part numbers
• The course was submitted as half, but will not show until it is completed. Example – all AP, DE, and IB courses require you finish the entire credit to be used in the calculation
![Page 35: Student Transcript System (STS) January 2021](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012709/61a987d1fe494735d5455f0d/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
35
STS – Courses Not Showing Up in Calculation
Example
This LEA submits courses by semester. This student is a senior that is currently in Eng IV AP and DE pre calculus, but they are not shown because it is a full 1 year course and is not broken down in parts.
![Page 36: Student Transcript System (STS) January 2021](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012709/61a987d1fe494735d5455f0d/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

Course Information
41
Course Part Number
Put part 1 and part 2 on any courses that need to be combined (S1 and S2). Check that courses are allowed to be combined in the core reference table.
Distance Learning Type Code
If a course is virtual or hybrid, please indicate using the distance learning code. For course choice use code 04. For all other virtual type courses, please use 03 other distance learning.
DE Courses
Use the post secondary sponsor and site code in the course sponsor/site field. Put the actual high school site code in the DE secondary site field. To find the codes needed, please look at the master site list in the Higher Ed tab. If the student passes the course, then the DEPostSecCreditHr field cannot be blank or 0.

Course Information
42
Quality Point Awarded and Grade Point Max
In these fields, please use the 4 or 5 point scale. We take the letter grade and course code to determine actual value. However, entering odd values can mess up the students calculation and possible TOPS eligibility.
International Schools and Post Secondary Outside of Louisiana
If you have a student that earned high school credit from another country or earned college credit from a university not in Louisiana, leave the Course Sponsor and Course Sitefield blank and write in a label in the Course Site Name Field. This is an either or situation.
Students that switched from DE/AP/IB to HR/GT/RG
The DE/AP/IB can only combine with their exact match. If a student starts in one and transfers to another, the rule is code the student how they finished the year. Also, if a student completes a DE course in one semester, they can earn a complete credit if they earned 3 hours of college credit.

STS – Parental Consent
Parental Consent is a checkbox in STS.
Students without consent are ineligible for TOPS.
You can get this as early as possible (9th) and only need it once unless a parent opts out.
The list of students without parent consent will be sent on your validation report or a real time list can be created using the Export Summary to Excel.

The Core Progress Report for public schools will not show the full PII for:
• Name
• Birthday
Please have the counselor, teacher, parent, and/or student check that the information is correct and that the FAFSA, GEE, and parental consent is Y.

Functions in the Print or Export Transcript Records
51
There are 3 improvements in the last option on the Print & Export tab:
• Any student that has a finalized graduation date will appear in the Official Transcripts. You can mass print or go to the student and print the single transcript.
• OTS Rejection Reasons gives you a list of students at that site that has at some point had a graduation date that is no longer valid.
• No PII report will give a list of any student that is missing a name, birthday, or SSN in eScholar.

8th Grade
52
Only students in 8th grade can be in STS.
• Leave 9th grade entry blank (can not be a future year)
• 7th grade credits can be entered in the 8th grade record using the correct year
• Classes can be either graded or P/F, but can not be both
• EOC subjects the student must pass the EOC to earn the credit
• It is probably easier to enter students manually than to batch upload them at first
• The main reason for entering data on 8th grade is so they do not lose the credits in the transfer – the accountability points fall on the sending school not the receiving school

FAQ

Questions Answers
My account is locked can you unlock me? Please email your security coordinator.
What do I when I find PII information is incorrect and
getting U error or it is not showing up on the official
transcript?
Fix the information in eScholar first, wait about an
hour, and make the change to STS. If it is a
transcript, request that I push the record to OTS
again.
If I have a previous graduate past 2016, what do I do? Email me with as much of details as possible.
Getting people through STS past 2015 is difficult and
may require me to manually load them into OTS.
I have a student that finished his course work on X
date, how do I graduate them.
If you need the student to belong to the previous year,
they must have a graduation date before September
1. If they are graduating with this year’s cohort, you
have to wait until we open that year in December.
LOSFA cannot find my student’s information. Check that student has accurate PII in eScholar, has
parental consent, and that site is certified.
Where can I find this PowerPoint, the training videos,
and other material about STS?
