WHAT IS DASL?

DASL is a web-based database software application that allows school districts to collect, store, and manage information about the students within their district and its buildings.

Districts also have the ability to manage posting calendars, links, and announcements that can be viewable by all or by just selected "groups" of individuals. Some of these collection, storage, and manageability items include:

1. • Create Portal or "home" web pages with notices, school links, announcements, etc. as pertinent to each building and/or group of users
2. • Registration of students and capabilities to manage the majority of all the EMIS reporting requirements within the DASL application
3. • Collect information for students including:
   1. o medical screening
   2. o notes
   3. o miscellaneous data
   4. o custody information
   5. o contact information
   6. o student alerts
4. • Complete fees package with accounting capabilities
5. • Assign lockers
6. • Assign homerooms
7. • Perform simple searches by building or advanced student searches by building or district
8. • Work on next year’s scheduling without disturbing current schedules and course masters
9. • Generate schedules for students and applicable reports
10. • Record and track discipline within the district and create reports for verifying and/or tracking
11. • Track attendance and create attendance reports as needed
12. • Create and track student Attendance letters and Discipline letters

DASL can be used by a variety of "groups". Some of those groups might be:

1. • District Administration
2. • Building Administration
3. • Guidance Counselor
4. • Teacher
5. • Building/District Secretarial staff
6. • Attendance Officer

Each "group" will have different levels of security within DASL, depending on what their job requires of them. Users can be assigned to more than one group. Access can be granted to view only or to be able to add, change, and/or delete within the application or a particular screen.
