from the drop-down list. Click Retrieve to retrieve the referrals for the selected
administrator.
The Status is assigned to the referrals by the system and it displays the current status of
the referral. The following are the three statuses that are assigned:
Discipline Referrals Checklist 8/1/2012 ESC Region VI: \\Cs2003server\CSDepartment\ISO\TxEIS\Student\Discipline\R6 TxEIS Discipline Referrals Checklist.docx
Page 10
o Pending status is assigned to referrals submitted from txGradebook where the
administrator has not reviewed or taken further action.
o Reviewed status is assigned to referrals where the administrator has reviewed the
referral and will take no further action.
o Completed status is assigned to referrals where the administrator created a
discipline incident from the referral.
The administrator can limit the referrals that are retrieved by using the following fields
to filter the referrals.
o The administrator can type a From Grade Level and a To Grade Level and click
Retrieve to pull referrals for certain grade level(s).
o The administrator can type a From Name Range and a To Name Range and click
Retrieve to pull referrals for students with last names in the alpha range.
o The administrator can type a From Incident Date and a To Incident Date and click
Retrieve to pull referrals within the date range specified.
o The administrator can also pull referrals by status. Click Pending and click Retrieve to
only pull referrals with a status of pending. Click Reviewed and click Retrieve to only
pull referrals with a status of reviewed. Click Completed and click Retrieve to only
pull referrals with a status of completed. The administrator can use a combination of
statuses; if he checked Reviewed and Completed, he would pull the referrals with a
status of Reviewed and Completed.
o The fields in the grid may be sorted by clicking the header to sort in ascending or
descending order.
Click the spyglass under the Details column in the grid, and the Referral Details Form is
displayed. The referral information submitted from txGradebook is populated in the

The administrator should review the information submitted and make a determination if
the offense warrants creating a discipline incident. If the offense does not warrant
creating a discipline incident, the administrator should click Review and use the Return
Message section to write a message informing the submitter that an incident was not
created. Click Save in the Referral Details Form. The dialog box closes, and the Discipline
Referral page remains displayed. The referral status is changed to Reviewed.
If the administrator reviews the referral and determines an incident needs to be
created, he should click the Create Incident checkbox. The administrator should look
closely at the comment submitted with the referral, as that comment is saved as the
comment for the incident record. If the comment contains inappropriate verbiage, the
comment should be modified by the administrator. The administrator should note if the
form contains more than one student name, as he would need to create a multi-student
incident. He can write a Return Message letting the submitter know what actions he is
taking and click Save. The Maintenance > Student > Maintenance page is displayed.
The information from the Referral Details Form is populated on the Maintenance page.
An incident number is automatically assigned for this incident. The administrator should
complete the fields required for the incident. If this is a multi-student incident, assign
the action(s) for the first student and click Save. In the Multi Student Incident box, select
the next student for this same incident, complete the required fields and click Save. This

student will be assigned the same incident number as the first student. The status for
this referral will be assigned as completed.
8. The txGradebook discipline referrers can see what actions were taken for their submitted
discipline referrals.
txGradebook > Discipline > Discipline Referrals
In your list of referrals, you can tell if the administrator has taken action on a referral,
because the status will have changed from pending to reviewed or completed.
If the discipline referral has a status of reviewed, a discipline incident was not created.
Click the spyglass for a reviewed referral, and the Record Details dialog box is displayed.
The Return Message is how the administrator can let you know why or what reason he
had for not creating a discipline incident.
If the discipline referral has a status of Completed, a discipline incident was created.
Click the spyglass for a completed referral. In the Return Message, the administrator
can let you know what action he took.
