Graduation Standards FAQs
Q. I want to print a single page report that gives me a course history of an individual student – is there a report that will serve this purpose?
A. Users can generate the Graduation Progress Report which displays courses taken at each grade level by semester. This report is available at the student profile under Academics > Reports > Graduation Progress Report. This report is also available to parents via the Parent Portal.
Q. Why does the IGP Report grant credit to some courses on the LAUSD A-G section, but not on the CDE requirements section?
A. This is due to the rules that apply for each section. The CDE section is based on California Department of Education rules which does not allow course validation and requires that courses be completed in grades 9-12. The LAUSD A-G section is based on CSU rules which allows course validation and also grants semester credit to the ‘C’ and ‘E’ subject courses taken in middle school.
Q. How do I view all of the courses that were used to calculate the total credits earned by a student?
A. If you click on the Total Credits value that’s displayed on the Graduation Standards Summary screen, a new screen will pop up that includes all of the courses that were used towards the count of the total credits earned.
Q. What is the difference between (r)Rec/(q)Req Courses on the IGP?
A. The IGP and Graduation Standards screen identifies courses that are RECOMMENDED with the (r) symbol. These are courses that meet the UC admission requirement OR are additional course(s) recommended by CSU. The IGP and Graduation Standards screen also identifies REQUIRED courses with the (q) symbol. These are courses that still need to be completed in order to meet LAUSD graduation requirements.
Q. Why does the class I entered for a student's transcript not appear on the IGP?
A. The information for the IGP report is updated on a nightly basis. Changes will be reflected the next day.
Q. Why can’t I generate the IGP report directly from the student profile screen instead of going to the Reports menu screen?
A. This functionality has recently been added to MiSiS. From the student profile screen you can navigate to Academics>Reports. There you will find a list of student reports that now includes the high school IGP. When selected it will auto-populate all selection parameters and allow you to export it to PDF.
Q. What tools are available in MiSiS to accurately determine a student’s graduation eligibility status?
A. The Graduation Standards summary screen provides an overview of years and semesters completed. However, in order determine if a student has met all specific subject requirements, it is necessary that you view the LAUSD A-G, CDE, and other LAUSD requirement detail screens. The IGP report is another valuable tool that you can use to determine whether students have met all specific subject requirements.
