HIMSS - Manage Sites

This is a list of school sites that participate in your district’s McKinney-Vento program. 

School sites can be edited by going to Settings > Program Settings > Manage Sites. Click on the drop-down arrow next to the site name to edit the site.

Please note that if there is any data related to site, such as users or students assigned to the site, you will not be able to delete it. If the site is no longer part of your program, you can Edit Active Terms to make it inactive.

Note there is no “add site” option; if additional school sites need to be tracked in HIMSS, contact your TransACT HIMSS account manager.

Notes

In addition to school sites, your database has been set up with an Administration (or Admin) site. This site is used to track adult participants, such as staff or parents/guardians, being served by your program. Services such as Professional Development for staff or Information Meetings for parents should be tracked within the Administration site. Also, partner contributions to your overall program can be added in this site.
