CHANGES to Enrollment Codes for 2007-08

Beginning Enrollment Records

Three new "Reasons for Beginning Enrollment Codes" have been added.  These are:

1. Code 5905.  CSE responsibility only.  This code is used to report students with disabilities for which the public school district has Committee on Special Education responsibility and who are enrolled by parental choice in a nonpublic school, a charter school, a public school district other than the district of residence, or are enrolled by court order in an out-of-state approved private school.  Also use this code to enroll a home-schooled student to report special education records.  This code is used by the LEA with CSE responsibility only when the reporting LEA does not provide general instruction and does not have accountability under the State accountability system.
2. Code 4034.  Determining eligibility for pre-school special education services. Enrolled solely for the purpose of determining eligibility for pre-school special education services.
3. Code 8294.  Census only (optional reporting).  Children of compulsory attendance age who are on the public school district's roster for census purposes only.

The definitions of two "Reasons for Beginning Enrollment Codes" have been modified:

1. Code 0011.  Enrollment in building or grade: This code is used by public, nonpublic and charter schools, and school districts when a student enrolls in a building or grade (for any grade level except GED).  Use this code to report enrollment of any student for whom the district has accountability responsibility under the State accountability system when the student did not transfer in under an NCLB Title I transfer option.  Also use this code to report students enrolled by parental choice in a nonpublic school that is participating in the repository system and/or is a Reading First school.
2. Code 5555.  “Walk-in” enrollment:  This code is used when a student enrolls for the sole purpose of taking an assessment and recording a test score.

Ending Enrollment Codes

Two new "Reasons for Ending Enrollment Codes" have been added.  These are under the "Other Circumstance for Ending Enrollment" group.

• Code 8228.  End "Walk-in" Enrollment.  This code is used to end a “Walk-in” enrollment when the student leaves the district or actually enrolls in the district.
• Code 140.  Preschool special education status determined.  This code is used only when a preschool child has been referred for a CPSE determination of eligibility for preschool special education services and a CPSE decision has been made.
