Creating the Community Service CSV File

The Community Service CSV File must be RFC-4180 compliant and encoded UTF-8. These are the default CSV export settings for most modern applications that provide data extract functionality.

The CSV file must contain the following columns shown below.

To be processed the file must END with the pattern "communityservice_{districtLEA}.csv". You can begin the file name with anything you want.

After you upload a file, the system will immediately process the file and create the community service records for the students in the file. It may take a couple of minutes for the import to complete.
