To help the district data entry people ensure that preschool children eligible for funding will show up in the IC count.

Objective

Eligible children include 3s and 4s with an active and locked disability, and 4 year-olds who whose family income is up to 150% of poverty.

Other children may be enrolled, but they are not counted for funding purposes.

Preschool Enrollment

Other preschoolers are enrolled if they are receiving services such as:◦ Special Education only (“N”)◦ RTI/KSI (non-income eligible)◦ Head Start in school building◦ FRYSC child care◦ Over income preschool

(if space is available)◦ Other: Title I, Tuition, ELL,

universal preschool

Other Children Enrolled

To determine the grade of the child, look at their age on October 1st.

A two year old on Oct 1 with a disability who turns 3 after Oct. 1 is in Grade 97.

Grade 97, 98 or 99?

There is no need to click on State Exclude. Preschool is not included in the state

reporting counts.

State Exclude

Remember districts cannot have a waiting list and must serve all eligible children. This includes 3 and 4 year-olds with disabilities.

However, districts are not required to enroll at-risk children who turn 4 after October 1; those children would be at-risk during the following school year.

What shall we do when children are not showing

up in the detail list?

Is the IEP active and locked? Are all the fields filled out (disability,

Conference Summary evaluation date? Is the Setting “Home”? Is the child a special ed only student,

Enrollment Type “N”? Is there a preschool tab?

Is the child’s name not showing in the detailed list?

Check to see that the child is actively enrolled.

Is the IEP active and locked? Does the date of enrollment for children

match the IEP date (unless the 4 year-old is income eligible)? See RTI/KSI slide for more details.

Is there a preschool tab for the child?

Name showing but no “1s”

Is the child a Head Start student (not enhanced)?

Does the IEP information match the enrollment information (grade, school)?

Name showing but no “1s”

If a child is in KSI/RTI, he/she isn’t eligible to be counted until there is an active and locked IEP, unless the child first enrolled as an income eligible 4.

When the IEP is active, if the child wasn’t already an income eligible 4, then end date the initial enrollment using the W01 code, and reenroll the child using the R01 code. Remember also give the child a new preschool tab with the new date of enrollment and end date the previous preschool tab.

KSI/RTI

The count is for children who are enrolled on March 1 regardless of when they entered.

If a child has left the school district before March 1, he/she will not count for funding purposes.

Must be enrolled on March 1

A child enrolled as Head Start will not be counted in the Preschool Spring Enrollment Count.

For the 2013-14 school year their name will show up in the Detailed report but there will be no boxes with a “1” regardless of other boxes checked in the preschool tab.

Head Start

For children enrolled on March 1 Data will be pulled March 10, 2014 KDE will contact the districts with the count pulled

Districts will verify accuracy Corrections completed by March 28, 2014
