Managing Enrollment Counts for Educational Institutions
Enrollment Counts
2023-2024
What are Enrollment Counts?
Enrollment counts are snapshots of the student enrollment and demographic
information taken the first three weeks of school. Enrollments counts are extremely
important and are required for the Nevada Department of Education program
validation, allocations, and determining growth, etc. The NDE will audit a certain
percentage of WCSD schools to ensure quarterly reported enrollment numbers were
accurate. If each of us does our part throughout the entire school year, we will not
lose apportionment for reporting students incorrectly.
ENROLLMENT COUNT DATES
All schools must email the completed Enrollment Count Worksheet to
StudentAccounting@washoeschools.net no later than 12 p.m. on the scheduled count
days (see below) with the exception of schools with PM Preschool (PK).
Email the worksheet as soon as it is completed.
Enrollment Count Designee Tasks:
Before Enrollment Counts
Read ALL Enrollment Count Instructions.
Coordinate and correspond with all the different staff members to ensure each person knows the tasks, they are
responsible for during the Enrollment Count.
Complete the Enrollment Count Designee Checklist for each Enrollment Count.
Provide Enrollment Count instructions to Teachers and Counselors.
Verify all PK students with an IEP are enrolled with start status E1 and included for Enrollment Counts. Non-
special education PK students must be enrolled with start status E3 service type: Primary and not included for
counts
Count Kindergarten students for Enrollment Count 1 as present.
Ensure ALL enrollment dates are correct in IC. The official start (enrollment) date is the first day a student is
physically present.
Ensure students marked AEL in attendance have a home hospital plan in place or are attending Jan Evans.
Students beginning the school year in a treatment facility might need enrollment code adjustment, therefore
Registrar/Secretary
must
contact Teresa Magana in Student Accounting for further instructions at 775-861-4432.
Change the Start Date for any student who does not attend the first day of school to reflect the first day the
student is physically present.
A list of Start Date changes must be provided to the counselor so the Schedule Start Date can also be updated.
Run the ad hoc found in IC under
Index > Ad Hoc Reporting > Data Export > Ah Hoc Count Day folder
Ensure Start Dates also fall within the calendar year. Run the ad hoc found in IC
Index > Ad Hoc Reporting >
Data Export > Ah Hoc Count Day folder
Day before enrollment counts you will receive an email reminder along with the EC worksheet.
Enrollment Count Designee Tasks
Day of each Enrollment Count
Secretary/Registrar generates and balances all the enrollment count reports (NV01, NV02, Master Register and

Worksheet.
On the day of the enrollment count, if there is a sub in the building, the Registrar/Secretary will explain the
process for enrollment count. (Provide a copy of the teacher instructions located in Student Accounting website)
Generate and hand the Sub Attendance Rosters (SARs) to Teachers. Remember to retain any off-campus or dual
credit SARs so those students are not missed for the count.
Remind teachers that they must sign and date the (SARs) for each count. Students do not need to sign SARs.

any student(s) at the bottom of the roster who is present, but not on the roster.

Investigate each student who is crossed off the roster to see if they should be no showed. Calls should be made
daily. The names of the students who are no showed should be referred to the Intervention Department for further
follow-up.

Enrollment Count Designee Tasks
Day of each Enrollment Count (Continued)
Remind all counselors not to make any schedule changes on the day of the count
until the count is completed and your school has balanced and is released from the
count by Student Accounting.
If there is a new enrollment or withdrawal during the count, contact your Student
Accounting troubleshooter for instructions.
DO NOT LET ANY STUDENTS WHO COULD ATTEND WALK AWAY. Contact Student
Accounting if any students enroll after the count has been turned in so the numbers
can be adjusted.
If a parent wants to withdraw their student on the day of the enrollment count and
the student will not attend that day, withdraw the student and have the
secretary/registrar rerun all enrollment count reports. Cross the student off the roster
noting the withdrawal.
Review all SARs once teachers have completed the count. The total number of
students from the SARs
must
balance with the total number of students on the
enrollment count reports by the last scheduled Enrollment Count.
Enrollment Count Designee Tasks
Day of each Enrollment Count (Continued)
Once all SAR’s are collected, complete the Enrollment Count Worksheet. (See
Instructions on the Student Accounting Website>Enrollment Count Instructions 23-
24>Enrollment Count Task> Enrollment Count Designee tasks)
Save the worksheet to your desktop with your school name in subject line as well as the
EC (Enrollment Count) 1, 2, or 3. Example, Anderson EC 1, Anderson EC 2, Anderson EC 3.
Once the Enrollment Count Worksheet is completed and saved, create an email with
the name of your school and Enrollment Count 1, 2, or 3 (depending on which count it is)
in the subject line,
EMAIL TO: StudentAccounting@washoeschools.net
.
Student
Accounting will pull your NV02 and Enrollment Summary Report to balance with your
worksheet. It is imperative that no changes occur until the count is over and the designee
has received an email that the school has balanced and is released. Once released
please
do not respond to Student Accounting email.
Your counselors can put students in
classes, but changes to IC will need to wait until the count is over.
Retain copies of all Enrollment Count documents for the entire school year.
