Txtracts - Txtracts is the software tool that we use to manage the 3rd party extracts for our Region 16 districts. The enrollment files for ASCENDER to 3rd party softwares listed here were paused on June 30th. This is done each summer during the transition period from one school year to another (25-26 to 26-27, ASDR). Please create an ASCENDER help desk ticket when you are ready for these to be activated for the 2026-2027 school year. Share this information with your technology staff.

ASCENDER Student Application Training Offerings for 2026-2027 - The training list is now available here. We have a beginning of year WIGO scheduled for the end of July and an ASCENDER New User training for early August. Check out these and all of the upcoming school year's training offerings and have the staff that needs the training get registered. Please note that a few trainings (those that are not hyperlinked) are still in the approval process and should be available for registration soon.
