Reports the Special Education data for a student.

Object Triggering Logic

This table describes logic for triggering syncing of this object.

Action	Trigger
Post	Reports one record for each Primary/Secondary SPED Services School with a student having a new IEP created and saved for a student and locked in a given scope year. When a student has multiple overlapping enrollments within the primary/secondary school, information reports from the enrollment with a Local Service Type of P: Primary. When a student has multiple overlapping enrollments within the primary/secondary school, but no P: Primary enrollment, information reports from the T: AOI enrollment. When a student has multiple overlapping enrollments within the primary/secondary school, but no P: Primary or T: AOI enrollment, information reports from the most recent A: Ancillary enrollment. When a student has multiple overlapping enrollments within the primary/secondary school, but no P: Primary, T: AOI, or A: Ancillary enrollment, information reports the most recent O: Program Only enrollment. When Primary/Secondary Services dropdowns are not populated, information reports from the enrollment that overlaps the IEP dates that has a IC Service Type of P: Primary. IEP start dates must be on or after enrollment start date and on or before enrollment end date. A record is not sent for an enrollment that is marked as State Exclude or No Show. A record is not sent when the enrollment is in a calendar marked as State Exclude. A record is not sent when the enrollment Start Status = E: NON-SAIS DISTRICT USE ONLY!.
Post	When a new enrollment is created for a student that has an existing IEP. Enrollment start date must be after IEP start date. IEP end date must be NULL or after Enrollment start date. When the student has more than one IEP started in previous schools years, only the most recent IEP reports.
Delete/Post	When a start date is entered or changed for an existing record. When the resource was posted from the IEP, updates when the start date was changed. When the resource was posted from the Enrollment, updates when the start date was changed.
Put	When an end date is entered or changed for an existing record. When the resource was posted from the IEP, updates when the start date was changed. When the resource was posted from Enrollment, updates when start date was changed.
Delete/Post	When reporting from an amendment, only post when one of the following editors are updated (Find this in the PlanAmendment table): Education Plan Placement
Delete/Post	When the student has two locked IEPs with the same start date and one record is deleted or unlocked, the remaining IEP posts.
Delete/Post	When an enrollment end date is entered for a student with a valid enrollment end status: W1-W13.
Delete/Post	When an Exit Evaluation is entered for a student, updates the end date of the active IEP.
Delete	IEP is deleted for a student.
Delete	When a student's enrollment Start Status is changed from a valid code to E: NON-SAIS DISTRICT USE ONLY! and saved.
Delete	When an existing enrollment is marked as State Exclude or No Show.
Delete	When the IEP Start or End Dates OR the Enrollment Start or End Dates have been updated so the IEP and Enrollment no longer overlap, deletes the record when one was created.
Delete	When a plan is unlocked.

School Exclude, Calendar Exclude, Resource Toggle and Resync Logic

This table describes the School Exclude, Calendar Exclude, Resource Toggle and Resync logic of this object.

Action	Trigger
None	When a resource is toggled to OFF after data has sent, all sent data remains in the ODS but no new data is sent.
Resync	When a record is in the Ed-Fi Identity Mapping table and not in the ODS, it is deleted from the Ed-Fi Identity Mapping table.
Resync	When a record is in the ODS and it does not have a matching record in Campus or the Ed-Fi Identity Mapping table, it is deleted from the ODS.
Resync	When a mapping is changed in Resource Preferences, a resync needs to be done to reflect the changes.
Resync	When Student Special Education Program Association is toggled off, records are not deleted from this resource in the State ODS when resyncing.

Natural Key Changes, Cascading Updates, and Deletes Logic

This table describes the Natural Key Changes/Cascading Updates and Deletes logic of this object.

Action	Trigger
Post/Delete	Natural Key changes: when the IEP Start Date changes the resource is deleted/reposted. LEA Reference - District Numbers cannot change after data has been sent. When a district number changes, an Ed-Fi error occurs and this change would not be supported. When an Ed-Fi ID changes, a delete/post occurs with the cascading deletes from the Ed-Fi ID Change triggers. When the IEP Start Date changes, the resource is deleted/reposted.
Delete	Cascading Deletes: N/A there are no dependent resources.

Object Data Elements

This table describes data elements sent within the Student Special Education Program Associations resource.

Data Element Label

Business Requirement and Logic

Mandatory, Conditional or Optional

Location

The unique identifier of the resource.

beginDate

The month, day, and year on which the student first received services.

Calculation
Reports the LATEST of the following dates:

IEP Start Date when the Enrollment End Date is blank/null OR after the IEP Start Date.
Enrollment Start Date when the IEP End Date is after the Enrollment Start Date.

ZZZ Calculation

When there are enrollments connected by an end status of ZZZ and a subsequent enrollment with a start status of ZZZ, the enrollments are combined into one reportable enrollment (Start Date of the "first" enrollment is used as the Enrollment Start Date).

See the Arizona Enrollments article for more ZZZ Enrollment information.

Notes

When there are multiple enrollments that all start before the IEP starts, the following logic is used to determine which enrollment to use to calculate the Enrollment Start Date:

When reporting from the Primary SPED Services School, the enrollment tied to the Primary SPED Services School is always used.
Otherwise, when reporting from the Secondary SPED Services School, the enrollment tied to the Secondary SPED Services School is always used.
Otherwise, reports from the enrollment that has an IC Service Type of P: Primary.
Amendments to IEPs are reported as a new Student Special Education Program Association (SSEPA) record. A PUT is NOT performed on the existing record.

endDate

The month, day and year on which the student exited the program or stopped receiving services.

When Enrollment End Date is NOT null:
- Reports the earliest of the following dates:
  - Exit Date for the Evaluation of the type Exit. The Exit Date must be within the IEP Start Date and the IEP End Date to be considered.
  - Enrollment End Date
  - IEP End Date
When Enrollment End Date IS blank/null:
- Verify that one of the following is true:
  - An IEP exists starting immediately after an existing plan. OR
  - An IEP has an end date that is prior to the last instructional day of the school year. OR
  - The most recent Evaluation with a type of Exit has an exit reason of SPED01 or SPED09.
- Reports the earliest of the following:
  - IEP End Date
  - Exit Date for the Evaluation of the type Exit. The Exit Date must be within the IEP Start Date and the IEP End Date to be considered.
  - Last instructional day of the school year.

ZZZ Calculation
When there are enrollments connected with an end status of ZZZ AND a subsequent enrollment with a start status of ZZZ, the enrollments are combined into a reportable enrollment.

The latest end date of the combined enrollments reports for the enrollment end date.
The enrollments must be in the same school, grade, and local service type. Also, the enrollment start date must be the next instructional day after the ZZZ end status, or be before or equal to the ZZZ end status.

Notes

The end date being sent must be an instructional day. When the calculated date (using the logic above) is not an instructional day, the previous instructional day reports. Example:

4/15/23 is the calculated end date, but is not an instructional day.
4/14/23 is not an instructional day.
4/13/23 is an instructional day.
4/13/23 reports.

When there are multiple enrollments that all start before the IEP starts, use the following logic to determine which enrollment to use to calculate the Enrollment End Date:

When reporting from the Primary SPED Services School, always uses the enrollment tied to the Primary SPED Services School.
When reporting from the Secondary SPED Services School, always uses the enrollment tied to the Secondary SPED Services School.
Otherwise, reports from the enrollment that has a Service Type of P: Primary.

When the LRE (SPED Setting) is D: Public or Private Separate Day School for greater than 50% of the school day, the End Date does NOT report until the associated enrollment has an end date. This logic also applies to amended IEPs.

When an Enrollment End Date is null:
- When an IEP exists starting immediately after an existing plan or starts the very next instructional day, reports SPED09.
- When the most recent Exit Evaluation has an Exit reason of SPED01 or SPED09, reports the Ed-Fi code from the Exit Reason selected.
- When the IEP end date ends prior to the last instructional day of the school year, reports SPED01.
When an Enrollment End Date is not null:
- When the IEP End Date is before Enrollment End Date
  - And an IEP exists starting immediately after an existing plan or starts the very next instructional day, reports SPED09.
  - Otherwise, reports SPED01.
- Reports the Ed-Fi code from the Exit Reason selected in the Exit Evaluation:
  - Evaluation Exit Date must be after enrollment start date.
  - Evaluation Exit Date must be before enrollment end date or last instructional day and before IEP End Date.
- Reports based on the table below when a student's enrollment is ended with the following End Status.
Otherwise, report blank.
