ADM Too High Validation

ADM Too High Validation

What Does it Mean

Average Daily Membership (ADM) is calculated using each student’s dates of enrollment in combination with the school’s School Annual Calendar. ADM is used to calculate adequacy aid. Attendance and absence data submitted via the EOY Enrollment are used to calculate attendance rate, so it must be as accurate as possible.

How to Resolve Them

The report should be showing any enrollment records for districts that contribute to the student’s ADM calculation, so that districts can identify where or why each student’s ADM exceeds 1.0. Within a single district the ADM should not be more than 1.

Each Students' district enrollment with their district enrollment dates and codes should be accurate.

Please edit and update your EOY Enrollment records to eliminate anomalies. If corrections need to be made in another district’s data, please contact that district's Local Security Administrator, or the user who uploaded that district's EOY Enrollment submission. A list of Local Security Administrators is available on the DOE website: NH Public Schools | NH Department of Education .

Sometimes a record will show up on an anomaly report that is not in error.  These are considered Explained Anomalies, and do not need to be resolved.  If you are unsure if your anomaly reports include an Explained Anomaly, please contact the Department for assistance.  Only the Department can determine if an anomaly is an Explained Anomaly that does not require further resolution.
