Printing PreID Labels

A PreID label (see Figure 12) is a label that you affix to a student's testing materials, such as an answer document.

Districts and campuses can print labels for students not included in the original PreID upload for a given administration, such as students who transferred to a campus after the PreID upload.

This task requires the 5" × 2" label stock provided in your test materials shipment. You can print on partially used label sheets. TIDE generates the labels as a PDF file that you download and print with your browser.
