Create Child

Only County Level/Data Manager level users and School Based Administrator with Can Create Child permission, may add students to the IEP system who are not included in the student demographic file that is uploaded nightly by the local school system (LSS) to the MD Online IEP.. Additionally, nonpublic users may only add students to the IEP system who are from local school systems NOT using the MD Online IEP. Students from LSS’s using the MD Online IEP must be placed in the nonpublic school by a MD Online IEP user from the LSS.

    Upon completion of an unsuccessful search for a case through Add a New Case, a Create Child button will be an option on the screen. When creating a child's case, minimally required information is indicated with an asterisk.  It would be helpful to include the student's State Assigned Student Identification (SASID) number.

    After a student record is created, you will be taken to the Student Menu. Notice that the student’s identifying information remains at the top of each screen.

Note:  If an error message that reads “There already exists a different record with the same information." appears when attempting to Create a Child, the message will indicate where the student's record is located. If the record is in a different school in the LSS or if the student's record is in a different LSS, your MD Online IEP administrator can work to have the record transferred to the appropriate school.
