Annual Information Report

Instructions for Completing the Annual Information Report, A Requirement of Membership (to be completed by school principals)

One of the requirements of membership in the New England Association of Schools and Colleges is the completion and electronic submission of the school’s Annual Information Report (AIR) by the principal. You will need to update and submit the Annual Information Report using a standard web browser. The screen will show the most current information contained in your school record. Please note there are four additional fields that must be completed: Daily attendance rate; Graduation rate; Dropout rate and Student user fees. In addition, the Evaluator List from each member school, a component of the report, enables you to make any changes/deletions to that list. This report is required of all CPSS member schools in accordance with Association policy. If you have any questions regarding submission of the report, please use the following e-mail address cpss-air@neasc.org and someone from our Commission staff will assist you. This is the most efficient way in which we can respond to your questions.

To begin, please go to our website, http://cpss.neasc.org/ , where you will see on the left column Quick Links, fifth down Annual Information Report (AIR), you will then see instructions, proceed down to the end and click to Annual Information Report:

• You will now need your user name and password that you had previously used last year. The information is as follows:

User Name: [[School User Name]]
Password: [[School Password]]

• If you are a fairly new school, you will need to register for the first time, by clicking the link to register.

You will now be ready to continue to the Annual Information Report by clicking the first link:

• Complete and submit the Annual Report & Substantive Change Update Form.
• It will bring up your school’s information. Please review and update all information that is already filled in.
• The second link is for you to print a copy for your record.
• The third link to be returned to us is the Review/Update Evaluator Information. The list includes evaluators from your school that are already in our database. Please list only the names of school personnel who have expressed an interest in serving on a visiting committee. Note that when you delete a name, you must indicate whether the individual has retired or relocated. If you are making additions, please do not overwrite any staff who have retired or relocated, so that our records will be accurate.
• The 4th link is for you to update or change your user name and password.
• The last link asks you to log out.

We urge each member school to print a copy of the AIR with the Evaluator List. Both reports are due back to the Commission office on or before Friday, April 1, 2011. If you have any questions, please contact the Commission office at cpss-air@neasc.org
