Types
Day out is any time you do not count that complete day as a day in session (ie Labor Day)
For Day out you must pick AM, PM, All Day
If it is AM or PM enter the duration in minutes that the event lasted
DEX will have two entries for that day
one day out for the number of minutes
one student day for the remainder of the minutes (number of minutes on your calendar profile - duration in minutes of this entry)
Event is anything you want on the calendar but it is not sent to DEX (ie First day of school)
ELearning Day is any day that you are conducting school via ELearning
ColorDay is used for bell schedules primarily (ie On Fridays you use a different bell schedule and it is called Green Day)
Waiver day is any state approved Waiver day
Schools to Include
If the calendar entry applies to multiple schools in your corporation check all the schools the entry applies to.
This keeps you from having to enter the data multiple times
Once your data in entered for that day touch Save
Once your school calendar is entered you will need to upload the data to DEX
