Students in Infinite Campus have a grade level to which they are assigned in their school (9,10,11,12) but they also have a cohort year, which is the calendar year in which they should graduate, based on their 9th grade entry date. If a student is on track to graduate, cohort year should be 4 school years after their 9th grade entry date. Often times however, students do not meet the requirements to move on to the next grade level, so their grade might not increment, but the cohort year remains the same. For this reason, it can be useful to run class lists by cohort year rather than grade level.

Student list by Cohort Year

Select the school year and school at the top of the screen in Infinite Campus
Navigate to Index > Ad Hoc Reporting > Data Export
In the Saved Filters section, scroll down to the items that have an underscore before the name. These are the predefined Ad Hocs available to most users in the district
The Cohort year reports are in the _Graduation category
It is recommended to export as CSV so the file can be opened in Excel and sorted as needed

Student list by Grade Level

Select the school year and school at the top of the screen in Infinite Campus
Navigate to Index > Ad Hoc Reporting > Data Export
In the Saved Filters section, scroll down to the items that have an underscore before the name. These are the predefined Ad Hocs available to most users in the district
Choose the _Demographics/Enrollment category, then the report titled Active Students (P) grade 9-12 w/cohort
It is recommended to export as CSV so the file can be opened in Excel and sorted as needed

Our advisors could also use a consistent method to run reports that classify students by GPA and/or ACT/SAT test scores, so advisors can easily meet with students that fit particular scholarship or college admissions criteria

Student list with GPA (Term)

Select the school year and school at the top of the screen in Infinite Campus
Navigate to Index > Grading & Standards > Reports > Term GPA
In the Saved Filters section, scroll down to the items that have an underscore before the name. These are the predefined Ad Hocs available to most users in the district
Choose the _Marks/Grades category, then the report titled IKIC Student List
It is recommended to export as CSV so the file can be opened in Excel and sorted as needed

Lastly, our advisors could really benefit from a wide-ranging overview of CCS student & staff demographics, what the data means? Where does the data pull from? When/how often does some of the data feed into Infinite Campus (ACT Scores, flags etc.)?
