+**School and Grade:** The student's grade and school information will be automatically updated shortly before they begin the next school year. So, in the summer months, the information on the account will display the previous year's information. The grade is stored in the Name Keywords field, which can be used as a patron search filter in the staff client, and also used in report template filters. Possible grades are: GradePK, GradeK, and Grade01 through Grade12.
 **Account Updates:** A parent/guardian wishing to make any changes to an account such as school, grade, address, etc. should be referred to their school so that the school's database can be updated. PINES will then automatically update that information based on the school's data. The only fields that should be changed directly in PINES are fields that a patron may change themselves or that are unique to PINES: User Name, Password, Preferred Name, Email Address, Hold Notification and Account Preferences. The grade will be stored in the Name Keywords field, and the school will be stored in the Secondary Identification field.
