From NC DTL on PowerSchool for 2020 HS Seniors
The Home Base team would like to thank you for your patience as we worked to develop guidance for grading high school seniors in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. In consultation with multiple DPI divisions and a group of PowerSchool administrators in the field, the team has developed the COVID-19 Grading for Seniors Quick Reference Guide. Additionally, we have also developed a brief walkthrough video to help explain this process. This process has been designed with eyes toward both student equity and ease of entry for PowerSchool coordinators and administrators. Please be sure to review this documentation closely. If you have any questions or concerns about the process, utilize the form linked at the end of the quick reference guide or log a ticket with PowerSchool Support.
NC Charter Schools are innovating to support students and families.

March 30 - May 15, 2020
- For days when remote learning is offered during this timeframe, these days are to be identified as in-session, regular school day.
- If there are times during this window in which your PSU is out of session and is not offering remote instruction, e.g., holiday, Spring Break, optional workdays, those days may be marked as such and labeled as out-of-session.
- For remote-learning days, denote the estimated number of instructional hours intended for your PSU in the Notes section of the Calendar Setup screen. It is a PSU decision about the amount of time to note.
-
Student attendance from March 30 - May 15 will not be taken.
NOTE: These guidelines will help schools manage daily enrollment and capture what is happening in our schools during the COVID 19 pandemic. The SBE/NCDPI is working with the General Assembly to address the remaining calendar issues for the 2019-20 school year. While NCDPI has the authority to provide direction on how to capture the school day, we do not have the authority to determine the final impact on the school calendar.
Hi EDDIE subscribed users,
The data in EDDIE must be current at all times, so please don't enter any changes in EDDIE for 2020-21 until after July 1, 2020. (The exception is new schools opening next year, those can be updated as needed.)
EDDIE will close at noon on June 30th to prepare for the rollover to 2020-21 and should re-open on July 1st. A reminder notice and year end checklist will be sent out to all of the EDDIE subscribed users around the end of May or early June.
PowerSchool (PS) normally pulls data from EDDIE nightly. PS will be turning off their data pull from EDDIE on April 20th. This is done by PS to allow schools and districts to enter schedules and transitions for next year in PS.
PS will determine when to turn their data pull back on after they complete their end of year process, usually sometime in July. From July 1, 2020 until whenever PS turns their data pull back on, EDDIE must be updated with your 2020-21 changes, especially grade level changes that have been made in PS. If EDDIE isn't updated before PS turns their data pull back on, the EDDIE data will overwrite PS and you will lose the schedules and transitions for those grades. Contact your SIS or PS Coordinator for PS data pull dates and information.
EDDIE Administrator, NCDPI
A Special Announcement from Dr. Kebbler Williams:
Friends and colleagues: I am honored to announce that I have been named the Director of K-12 at The Hunt Institute. My last day in OCS is Friday, May 29th. During my tenure in OCS, I have been a part of opening 82 charter schools across the state (with 10 more planned in 2020) and have provided support to many more over the years. I am grateful for my time at DPI and for all that I have learned and all the wonderful people I have met and had an opportunity to grow with. It has been a great privilege. I leave behind an exceptional team that I know will continue to champion the mission and vision of the Office of Charter Schools. May God's peace be with you until next we meet.
