Create a New State Incident

Schools are often required by law to report certain types of incidents to state education departments. Accurate logging ensures compliance with these regulations. Keeping detailed records of incidents helps in monitoring and addressing student behavior and safety concerns. It allows for timely interventions and support for students who may be at risk. This lesson shows users how to create new state incidents from the Student Profile.

Where to Start

Go to Student.
Select Student Profile.
Filter as needed and Search for a student.
Select the Student ID to access the Student Profile.

Go to the Discipline tab.
Select State Incident to open the Report State Incident window.

Verify the incident you're going to create does not already exist. Choose an Incident Type and optionally add a Date.
Select Search to view results for the Incident Type.
If the incident does not already exist, select New Incident.

Enter all Required fields then check all applicable VADIR Details categories. Newly created State Incidents are automatically included in the VADIR Report.
Select Save to create the incident.

Use the Number of Student Victims field to report the total number of student victims, when the names of all student victims are not known or cannot be added to the incident.

Once the incident has been created, it appears in the list. From here, it can be viewed, edited, deleted, add victims, or assign actions.
