Home School Monitoring Service 6) Why am I unable to upload my student’s IHIP, quarterly report, or annual assessment? To upload a document, it must be in Word or PDF format and it must not include special characters such as ‘, -‘ or & in the title. 7) Why did the system time out when I entered my student’s quarterly report into the online form? There is a system time-out setting that automatically logs users out after 1 hour. Therefore, parents should complete their form entries and submit them within one hour to avoid being logged out and losing the information they entered. If a parent anticipates needing longer than 1hour for form entry, they should consider typing the entries into a separate document and copying and pasting the information into the online form. |
