ASAP (use Level 0 authorization form) If you work with Regents Scanning and verification of that data, then you should have access to ASAP. ASAP uses the
demo & course teacher data from Level 0, so if you have access to Level 0, then you would use that same userid and password for ASAP. Secondary principals should have access to ASAP to see the RIC scanned Regents results.
Core FTP (authorization through RIC or DDC) If you’re providing/receiving data warehouse exports, this application enables districts and the RIC to transfer files using
secure file transfer protocol.
IRSP Portal (authorization through SEDDAS Delegated Entitlement Administrator for the district (Superintendent or designee))
If you’re going to be working with the Teacher PIN distribution and/or the statements of certifications for SED (IRS-Information Reporting Services), you would need IRSP download access. This is also where the monthly UIAS reports are placed, so if you don’t have access, then someone would need to download them for you or you would need to wait until we have them out on the Core FTP site.

Universal and Other Pre-K Prekindergarten/Universal Pre-K/Preschool
The term “prekindergarten” means students who are enrolled in a prekindergarten or universal pre-K (UPK) program. Students reported in any Pre-K program should be four years of age on or before December 1 or otherwise eligible to attend kindergarten in the next school year.
Universal Pre-K (UPK) programs are Pre-K programs funded pursuant to Section 3602‑e of Education Law. These programs are operated by the school district or by other eligible agencies under a contractual agreement with the school district
Students participating in UPK require a UPK Program code 902 and applicable setting code (1309 – 1419)
Students participating in a Non-UPK funded or “Other” Pre-K require a Pre-K Program code 990
NOTE: If a school or district offers only half-day pre-kindergarten and/or kindergarten programs, but some students attend multiple sessions (e.g., an additional morning or afternoon session) to participate in supplemental special education services, these students should be considered half-day students and reported with a Grade Level Code of PKH or KH.
Statewide Universal Full Day Pre-K & Priority Pre-K If students are funded with both UPK and either Statewide or Priority, code as 902 UPK If students are not UPK, code as 990
The term “preschool” means children referred to the CPSE for special-education eligibility determination (i.e., those with a Reason for Beginning Enrollment Code 4034) and students receiving preschool special-education services (Reason for Beginning Enrollment Code 0011). Both groups use the Grade Ordinal “PRES” (PS) to report under the data element “Grade Level”.
If preschool students with disabilities are enrolled in Pre–K or Universal Pre–K programs, use grade level code “PREKH” (PKH - half-day prekindergarten) or “PREKF” (PKF - full-day prekindergarten) and the building of location code of the Pre–K or Universal Pre–K program.
Preschool transition to K (SE Snapshot/Disability)
An enrollment record must be entered (for CPSE students who are entering Kindergarten in September) if students are ELIGIBLE for PS services over the summer (even though they may not have received them), unless declassified prior to 7/1
Enter same dates as PS Disability record (7/1-8/31)
Use provider/location code of provider last school year(unless it is UPK-0666 location), or use current building (ie; elementary school building)
Enrollment Exit codes – If student is changing buildings, use 153 (transferred to another building in this district) if student is staying in the same location, use 782 (entry into a different grade level in
the same building). DO NOT use “Completed Grade”
Special Ed EOY (End of Year) Snapshot records (pre-school students only) For the year the student becomes school-age, your Special Education Management
System Extract process must prevent the submission of a preschool end of year special education snapshot if no summer preschool special education services were provided
Preschool transition to K (SE Snapshot/Disability)

Regents Course codes – Updatehttp://www.p12.nysed.gov/assessment/commoncore/transitionccregents1113rev.pdf
**New** Geometry Common Core – 02072CC Districts will be selected to participate in the Standard Setting For the June 2015, August 2015, and January 2016 administrations only, students receiving Geometry
(Common Core) instruction may, at local discretion, take the Regents Examination in Geometry (2005 Revised) in addition to the Regents Examination in Geometry (Common Core). If students take the old Regents Exam in addition to the new Regents Exam, the higher of the two scores may be used for local transcript purposes, and will be used for institutional accountability for the 2014-16 school year results. In addition, such students may meet the mathematics exam requirement for graduation by passing either of these exams.
Schools that plan to offer Geometry (Common Core) as a semester-long course during the 2014-15 school year are encouraged to do so during the second semester so that students can take the Geometry (Common Core) exam when first available in June 2015 and immediately upon completion of the course.
ELA – 01003CC Districts will be selected again to participate in the Standard Setting For the January 2015, June 2015, and August 2015 administrations only, students enrolled in Common Core
English courses may, at local discretion, take the Regents Comprehensive Exam in English (2005 Learning Standards) in addition to the Regents Exam in ELA (Common Core).

Linking Regents courses – From the FAQ document at http://www.p12.nysed.gov/irs/courseCatalog/FAQs.pdf
13) We have a high school class of students who are taking a course named Honors/College Biology where the curriculum doesn't match the school’s regular Biology course. These students will take the Living Environment Regents Examination at the end of the course. Should the Honors/College Biology course be mapped to the state course code linked to Living Environment Regents Examination (03051)?
Yes. If a course leads to any Regents Examination, the course code linked to the Regents Examination must be used. There are no exceptions for coding courses that lead to State exams. It does not matter what the local course is called.
Note: Students taking AP Courses (i.e. World and US History), that will be taking both the AP and the Regents exam (i.e. Global History) should be mapped to the State Course code for the Regents (i.e. 04052)
17) Some courses are taught in two parts over two years (e.g., Global History): Part 1 in year one and Part 2 the next year. After the students complete Part 2, they take the State exam. Which course should be linked to the State course code?
Only the year two (Part 2) course should be linked to the State exam. The Part 1 course should not be mapped to the State exam code but should be mapped to the course code that best matches the instruction/curriculum taught.

SIRS - Update by template – 2014-15
Staff Assignment – authorization via HR Setup
Assignment Code Sets:
PMF (Personnel Master File) / APPR (Annual Professional Performance Review) and
ENYP (EngageNY Data Portal) For ENYP, choose one assignment code from ENYP assignment code
set for each staff person. Although it is possible to have more than one ENYP assignment, it will not be typical.
One situation where a staff person may have multiple ENYP assignments might be if a staff person who needs full access to restricted data at one location but has a different role at another location and will need only access to general data there.
Assignment Codes and Descriptions for PMF/APPR
Assignment Code: Code that indicates staff assignment. Send one record for each assignment code/location code/grade level combination. For PMF, choose one assignment code from the PMF/APPR assignment
code set for each of the staff member’s assignments. Please note that the principal assignment code set has been expanded to identify the type or grade level of the school associated with the principal.
To report a principal for APPR, choose a principal assignment code from the PMF code subset.

Staff Tenure (HR Setup – available end of November) Although teachers can be certified in multiple areas, teacher tenure is only
granted once by an employer (although there may be some exceptions for teachers who leave an employer for a significant length of time and return). Once a teacher is granted tenure, the teacher tenure record for that employee/employer is most likely not going to be updated. If a teacher moves from a position that is not tenure-eligible to one that is, the Tenure Status Code would change accordingly. This leaves the Staff Tenure record with the most current information available. This template includes each staff member’s current tenure status as teacher and/or principal, effective date of the tenure status, and when their probation ends.

Medically Excused: Students who are incapacitated by illness or injury during the test
administration and make-up periods and have on file documentation from a medical practitioner that they were too incapacitated to complete the test at the school, at home, or in a medical setting are considered medically excused, are considered to have no valid test score, and must be reported with a final score of 999 and a standard met code of 93.
SIRS Updates continued…
Daily Attendance LEAs may report multiple Daily Attendance codes on a single
day. Both a suspension and an absence/tardy may be reported on
the same day. Although local data systems may collect suspension and attendance
information in different places, SED’s data collection model requires both to be reported through the Student Daily Attendance template.
The initial requirements for collecting absence, tardy, and suspension data are based on use in the EngageNY Portal (ENYP).
Attendance may be reported by any reporting entity that is required to take attendance, including the home school district.

Board Of Regents Approves New Graduation Options New Pathways Will Better Prepare Students for College and Careers and
Improve New York's Economic Competitiveness- http://www.nysed.gov/press/MultiplePathways
Currently, students are required to pass five Regents exams in high school in order to graduate – one each in English, science, math, as well as the U.S History and the Global Studies and Geography exams. The regulations advanced today include a “4+1” option that permits a student to take four Regents exams and a comparably rigorous technical, arts, or other assessment for the fifth examination required for graduation. The 4+1 option would apply beginning with students who first entered ninth grade in or after September 2011 and thereafter or who are otherwise eligible to receive a high school diploma in June 2015 and thereafter and have passed four required Regents exams (or Department-approved alternative assessments) in English, mathematics, science and social studies.
