<div><font size="2"><u>Updated ODE Institution ID Request Process:</u></font></div>
<div><font size="2">ODE recently posted an new request form and procedures manual to assist districts in making requests for school closings/openings/consolidations, name changes, grade range changes for ODE institution ID numbers that correspond to local schools.
The ODE institution ID numbers are used by districts to send information to ODE for student and aggregate level reports and have a direct bearing on AYP/Report Card ratings, distribution of ADM, assessment results and public released reports that fulfill state
and/or federal reporting requirements. We understand that several districts are considering closings or consolidations of schools due to the economic situation and may want to review the updated materials to see if they may need to make ODE institution requests
as part of decisions made at the local level. Changes for next school year are to be updated at ODE prior to the beginning of the school year. The new documents are posted at the following link along with contact information. <a href="http://www.ode.state.or.us/search/results/?id=219"><font color="#0000FF"><u>http://www.ode.state.or.us/search/results/?id=219</u></font></a></font></div>
