SameGoal supports auto-creation of Home Language Surveys for districts that integrate with Skyward SMS.
Steps
To configure HLS auto-creation:- Log in as an admin user.
- Ensure a demographics integration has been configured for Skyward SMS.
- Navigate to Settings > District Information.
- Scroll down to Administrative Options.
- Under Auto-Generate Home Language Surveys, provide the required information:
- Assignee: email address of the user whom these documents and their associated deadlines should be assigned to.
- Cutover Date: a HLS will be auto-created for qualifying students if their enrollment date falls after this date.
- Select the Enable checkbox.
A Home Language Survey will be created for a student anytime they have an enrollment or language change if:
- Their enrollment date is after the cutover date
- They have a non-English language set
- They do not currently have an incomplete HLS
- They do not already have a completed HLS for a non-English language
When Home Language Surveys are auto-generated, they will be marked complete and only filled out with basic enrollment and language information. When the document is created, a deadline for LPAC Initial Review will be calculated for four calendar weeks after the student's initial enrollment.
lightbulb Tip
If a student has an HLS for a non-English language, then their language changes to English, a HLS will be created in order to clear their deadlines.
