Add Non-NRS Student History Item

Updated 2/26/2024

This article describes how to add a non-NRS student history item. 

A non-NRS history item is added when a person is not eligible for ABE services. Ineligible people must be marked with a non-NRS student history item. People with an active Non-NRS history item are not counted on Table A or any NRS tables. 

IMPORTANT NOTES:

• The non-NRS tag is in effect for the entire contact year (May 1-Apr 30) or NRS program year (Jul 1-Jun 30). It is not possible to "turn off" a student's non-NRS status in the middle of the year. 
• The non-NRS tag is person specific. It is not site specific.
• If another program shares the same student, a non-NRS history item in effect at your site will apply to all other sites they attend during the same year. NONE of the sites will be able to count ABE hours or level gains/MSGs for the student.
