When possible, it would be helpful to eliminate the K-6, 7&8, and high school format in ScoutNet when inputing LFL schools.
With the new license agreement structure, it shouldn't matter how we have the units broke out. The issue is with Middle school entries: if you have a school with 6, 7, and 8 graders, you currently need 1 Memorandum for the 6 graders and then a separate one for 7&8. Or, if you 7, 8, and 9 grades in the middle school you need a 7&8 form and then one for the 9th graders.
The registars are confused. Just eliminate the grade brake outs to solve this problem. Units are no longer tracked within the in-school program. ScoutNet should reflect that and less paperwork to be done. Basically... one form per school building no matter how many grades it has.
Thanks...

I have to say that not only will my school counselors and administrators miss the "old" career interest surveys, but I will too! The old surveys can be scanned sooo much faster (considering I have several thousand to scan) and offer the additional 6 yes/no questions that schools can use as they please. The "new" surveys take too long to scan and don't offer the 6-question section which many schools used to gather data for state documentation and grant writing purposes.
Is there any possibility that we can revert back to the "old" survey?

It seems that so much of the information and resources are available not only to everyone...as in every.body....but also the school staff/administrators who sign a Memorandum of Understanding in order to use/implement the LFL program each school year. I think it makes more sense to assign a username/id and password to each school representative EACH SCHOOL YEAR. A new id and password should be assigned even to those schools who renew their contract with LFL...this limits the number of folks who have access to the information for free! I think we all know that some schools choose to use LFL for one school year, keep the materials, and dont' renew the following school year with the full intention of still using the LFL materials.
On a more realistic note...I wish the public LFL website was more organized and user friendly, for my school staff's sake! I think it's a bit of a turn off when there are plenty of other character ed programs out there whose websites are very simple and organized in a manner that makes it easy for a first-time-visitor to find what he/she is looking for!

It would be nice if we could have applications that include the new $10.00 fee for Exploring. I had heard that these would be out back in October...and have yet to see them. Is there a reason for this?
