Summary
RPD04 - Summer School Outcomes lists students who have a recognized summer outcome. The outcome may be Promoted, Retained, Reclassified, Graduated, or Conflict. The report can include summer school Enrollment records, Summer Education program records, or both. It can also include a student whose outcome is based only on a Summer Education program record.
RPD04 includes a student only when the summer records produce an outcome. A student with summer activity but no recognized summer decision is not included. RPD03 - Summer School Enrollment lists students with at least 1 qualifying summer school Enrollment record. RPD04 lists students with a summer outcome, including students whose outcome is based only on a Summer Education program record.
The report uses the latest dated summer decision. A later decision replaces an earlier decision. If different decisions have the same latest date, summerOutcome shows Conflict. The individual decision dates are not displayed in the report; review the source records to compare their dates and decisions.
Severity
Information
What to Review
Compare the summer outcome and its source with the student's summer records. Then review how that outcome relates to the no show, current year enrollment, and final progression results.
| Report field | What it shows |
|---|---|
| ReportEndYear | The end year of the reporting school year. For example, 2026 represents 2025-26. |
| schoolCode, schoolName | The school associated with the student's reporting year record. |
| studentUID, lastName, firstName | Information used to identify the student. |
| stateGrade | The student's grade level at the reporting school during the reporting year. |
| summerEnrollmentCount | The number of qualifying summer school Enrollment records included for the student. |
| summerProgramCount | The number of qualifying Summer Education program records included for the student. |
| summerOutcome | The latest dated summer decision: Promoted, Retained, Reclassified, Graduated, or Conflict. |
| summerOutcomeSource | The record type or types with decisions on the latest decision date: Summer Enrollment, Summer Program, or both. |
| noShowOutcome | The outcome from qualifying no show Enrollment records at the reporting school. |
| cyGradeOutcome | How the following year grade at the same school compares with the reporting year grade: Promoted, Retained, or Reclassified. |
| finalProgressOutcome | The final progression result after the available evidence is considered. |
| reportingOutcome | The classification used for PMR reporting, when the student is eligible. |
| outcomeSource | The type of information used to determine the final progression result, such as EOY, Summer School, Summer No Show, or CY Enrollment. |
| outcomeDecisionRule | The rule used to determine the final progression result. |
| outcomeReviewReason | One or more reasons that may need review. Multiple reasons are separated by semicolons. |
The summer counts show the qualifying Enrollment and Summer Education program records included for the student. summerOutcomeSource identifies the record type or types whose decisions on the latest decision date determined summerOutcome. These fields may not refer to the same set of recods.
The following source values are used to determine summerOutcome. For Summer Enrollment the decision comes from the Enrollment record's End Action. For a Summer Education program, the decision comes from the program record's Exit Status.
| Source record | Value | RP outcome |
|---|---|---|
| Enrollment end action | P | Promoted |
| Enrollment end action | R | Retained |
| Enrollment end action | D | Reclassified |
| Summer Education program exit status | SPR | Promoted |
| Summer Education program exit status | SRN | Retained |
| Summer Education program exit status | SGR | Graduated |
When summerOutcome shows Conflict, review the dates and decisions on the source records. Confirm whether different decisions share the latest decision date. RPD04 does not display the individual decision dates. Use the source record paths in Recommended Actions to review the Enrollment or Summer Education program records.
A conflict means the report found different decisions on the latest date. It does not, by itself, show which record is incorrect. Correct a source record only when its information is inaccurate.
RPD04 reporting fields used to determine the summer outcome.
Recommended Actions
- Confirm that the student, reporting year school, and state grade are correct.
- Review summerEnrollmentCount, summerProgramCount, and summerOutcomeSource.
- Use the counts to see how many qualifying records of each type are included.
- Use summerOutcomeSource to identify which record type or types provided the decisions on the latest decision date.
- Open the applicable source records and compare their dates and decision values.
- For summer school Enrollment records, go to Student Information > General > Enrollments. Review the applicable summer school Enrollment record and its End Date and End Action.
- For Summer Education program records, go to Student Information > State Programs > Summer Education. Review the applicable program record and its Start Date, End Date, and Exit Status.
- The decision dates are not shown in RPD04. Review the source records to determine which decision is the latest.
- If summerOutcome shows Conflict, compare the decisions that share the latest date. Use the applicable direction guidance to determine whether any source record is inaccurate. Do not change accurate records only to remove the conflict.
- Compare the summerOutcome with noShowOutcome and cyGradeOutcome. Review outcomeSource and outcomeDecisionRule to see which evidence determined finalProgressOutcome. A difference between these fields signals more information to review; it does not automatically mean a source record is incorrect.
- Review outcomeReviewReason. A reason identifies information that may need review, but it does not always mean the outcome is incorrect. Open the related cleanup validation article for the reason shown. For summer and no show conflict, see RPC03 - Summer No Show Conflict. For an outcome or reporting mapping concern, see RPC01 - Outcome Review or RPC08 - Reporting Outcome Mapping, as applicable.
- Correct source records only when source information is inaccurate. See Retention/Promotion Corrections for the applicable process.
Verify the Review or Correction
After reviewing the records or correcting inaccurate source information:
- Allow the RP data to refresh.
- Run the RP data validations again.
- Review RPD04 to confirm that the summer outcome, its source, and final progression result reflect the current source records.
