Report Logic

Only one record reports per student.

In order to be included in the extract, a student must have the Act 16 Funding field populated on their enrollment record. There are four possible values for this field:

  • 1: $0 - $28,481.33
  • 2: $28,481.34 - $56,962.68
  • 3: $56,962.69 - $85,444.04
  • 4: $85,444.05 and over

A student is assigned a value based on the yearly expenditure of the special education program directed by an individual education program (IEP) for the entire school year (July 1 through June 30).

The School District of Residence submits the template, unless the following exceptions exist:

  • Students enrolled in a charter school are reported by the charter school.
  • 1305 (Foster Home) students are reported by the school district in which the student resides with the foster parents.
  • Students educated in state adult and state juvenile correctional facilities are reported by the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections Education.
  • Students designated as Wards of State in county prisons are reported by the school district in which the prison is located.
  • Gifted students are not included in this submission.
