Beginning of Census cycle
Mail
a Student Listing Report to the School Districts that had children
on the Census for the previous year.
This will give the schools a "heads-up" for the coming Census to
begin gathering data, checking to see who needs assessment, who
needs to be added, etc.

Generate Green Forms for current children on the Deafblind Census.
Up until this point, a Region can add the names and information
of children that have entered a school district that year. If a
student is added before the printing, the school will receive a
completed Green Form for that child.

of "Deafblind", and return a form for that child and all current Census
children.
