Explanation of the EPIMS Summary Reports

The following document provides information on the EPIMS Summary Reports available to districts after they submit the EPIMS collection. These reports can be found in the Reports Summary Reports section of the EPIMS application. It is very important that the data in these reports be reviewed carefully before districts decide to certify their collections. In addition to the descriptions of each report below, an additional document with detailed descriptions of the values used to produce the reports can be downloaded here:   . For additional questions about these reports, please call 781-338-DATA (3282).

EPIMS/EPIMS Comparison

This report provides a comparison of the current EPIMS collection to the prior EPIMS collection. The report summarizes, for this year and last year, the full-time equivalent (FTE) for each job classification (WA07) and in some cases, such as the paraprofessional category, the assignment code (WA08). The difference between the two is displayed as well as the percent change. When the percent change is 20% or greater and there is a minimum count of 10 in the current FTE column, the row is highlighted for district review. This report is a useful tool for finding any potential errors or omissions in the EPIMS collection.

Teacher: District Summary

This report groups teachers first by core academic subject and then by grade. It summarizes the total FTE, FTE of licensed teachers, and percent of licensed teachers by subject and by grade. In addition it summarizes the total classes taught, the classes taught by highly qualified teachers, and the percent of classes taught by highly qualified teachers for both this year and last year by subject only.

Teacher: District Summary by School

This report provides the same data as the Teacher: District Summary report but groups the teachers by the schools in which they work.

All Active Staff by Individual

This report provides a listing of staff reported with an active status (SR09 = 01—working). The individuals are grouped at the district level followed by a listing for each school. Within the district and school groups, staff are grouped by job classification (WA07) and then sorted by last name.

All On Leave and Exited Staff by Individual

This report provides a listing of staff reported with an inactive status (SR09 = 02—on paid leave, 03—on unpaid leave, or 04—exited).
