RE:                   Verification of Schools System Data on File

 

            The attached page(s) represent school system data on file at the Department of Education.  Please verify the data and return the original to the Management Information Systems Team before August 30, 2001.  You may then notify us of any additional changes anytime during the year as they occur by contacting Shirley McQuarrie.

 

1.      Cross out incorrect data and write in the corrected data above.

 

2.      If a school is not listed, add it to the end of the listing.

 

3.      If a school has closed, cross out the entire line of data.

 

[If a school hasn’t actually closed but moved to a different building (new or otherwise), please indicate such.  In many cases it will be necessary for us to adjust the coding.]

 

DEFINITIONS:
