Cityspan Guidance for Comprehensive Afterschool Programs
In FY19-20, OFCY has set up a general Master Sign-In activity to track program attendance for the Comprehensive Afterschool Programs. This new group activity should simplify the data entry and reporting for afterschool programs and allow you to track the full day participation through one activity rather than having to create multiple activities for the day's programming. Please see the Master Sign-In Group Activity Guidance for how to create, setup and report attendance on these activities. Feel free to contact Scott at sskim@oaklandca.gov with any questions.
OUSD Schools
In addition to using Master Sign-in Group Activity as instructed by OFCY, OUSD has additional requirements for creating activities that are differentiated by OUSD/21 CCLC activity categories. For any non-Master Sign-In activities created per OUSD guidance, you should zero out all OFCY projection fields: Number of Sessions by quarter, Average Session Participant, Average Length of Session. Please direct any questions to OUSD After School Programs Office regarding OUSD guidance.
Charter Schools
You should only use the Master Sign-in Group Activity to project and report participation to OFCY.
