The Youth Membership Application asks for the School's name. I do not know of a place where this information can be manually entered into Scoutnet.
Recently, one of my District Executives asked me for a breakdown of his units, by school / school distrist.
I think it is very important information and can be helpful in many ways, especially recruiting and FOS.

The information from the youth application listing school name should be used in two different ways in ScoutNET to provide data to assist the council in supporting its membership.

The first way is when the person record is created or updated for a youth member the school is entered on the Relationships tab of the record. Entry into relationships first requires that the school be created as a community organization record. This information will be available for youth members when exported using Registrant Print Selections.

The second way to use the information on schools is by unit to complete the School Affiliation Maintenance screens in ScoutNET Membership to associate the unit with the school from which membership is recruited. The ScoutNET Support Site has a document on School Affiliation Maintenance that explains in detail how this is done. Once the school affiliation data is entered the council staff members may use the School Search in MyBSA searches and PAS FIND to obtain the data on the units with school affiliations. This search provides a quick look up capability by ZIP Code or School Name.
