Special Education Table 8A Extract

Report Logic

All students who have a locked ESR Evaluation and the Evaluation Editor's Date of Report is within the Start and End Dates entered on the extract editor. If there are multiple locked ESRs within the report generation start and end dates, a record reports for each ESR. The student's State Referral record is used to find the start date prior and closest to the locked ESR Date of Report where the Referral Type is Initial.

When the State Referral Record has the Referral Stopped checkbox marked, it does not report.

ESR Re-Evaluations are not included.

Number of Days

Reports a calculated value from the date the Parent Permission was Received until the date the Eligibility Decision was Made, excluding summer breaks.

  • A value of ERR reports when the Date Parent Permission to Evaluate Received (Received Consent) or the Date Eligibility Decision Made (locked ESR Date of Report) or the Last Staff Day or First Day are blank.
  • A value of ERR reports when the Date Parent Permission to Evaluate Received is greater than the Date of Eligibility Decision Made (locked ESR Date of Report.
  • A value of 0 reports when the Date Parent Permission to Evaluate Received is greater than or equal to the Last Staff Day and  less than or equal to the First Staff Day and the Date Eligibility Decision Made is before the First Staff Day.

The following calculations are used, depending on the dates used in the ESR and on the report editor:

  1. The number of days between the Last Staff Day entered on the report editor minus the Date Parent Permission to Evaluate Received reports. (Calculation: Last Staff Day - Received Consent)
  2. The difference between the Last Staff Day minus Received Consent plus the difference between the Date Eligibility Decision Made and the First Staff Day (Calculation: (Last Staff Day - Received Consent) + ESR Date/Eligibility Date < First Staff Day)
  3. The difference between the Date Eligibility Decision Made and the First Staff Day reports when the ESR Date/Eligibility Date is greater than or equal to the Last Staff Day AND Received Consent is greater than or equal to the Last Staff Day AND Received Consent is less than or equal to the First Staff Day.  (Calculation: ESR Date or Eligibility Date - First Staff Day).
  4. The difference between the Date Eligibility Decision Made and the Date Permission to Evaluate Received reports. (Calculation: ESR Date/Eligibility Date - Received Consent).
