Subject: PD-1C/4C- Charter School Report: Number of Students with Disabilities Provided Special Education on December 1, 2005 and the Settings in which Students with Disabilities are Provided Special Education Services. Due between December 1, 2005 and December 17, 2005.

Attached is the PD-1C/4C form to be used to report your December 1, 2005 count of students with disabilities. This report is due to the State Education Department between December 1, 2005 and December 16, 2005 and should be submitted to:

New York State Education Department
Office of Vocational and Educational Services for Individuals with Disabilities
Strategic Evaluation Data Collection, Analysis and Reporting
Room 1613, One Commerce Plaza
Albany, New York 12234

A copy of Section B, Table 1 of this report must be provided to each public school district in which your students reside on December 1, 2005, also by December 16, 2005.

There are three main purposes for collecting these data:

  1. To establish the number of school age students with disabilities upon which to base your school's 2005-2006 federal fund allocations for IDEA Section 611 and Section 619. Upon submitting the required notifications by the required timelines to students’ resident school districts regarding significant program expansion, Charter schools also qualify to receive additional IDEA federal funds in the same school year in which the significant expansion occurs.

  1. To collect statistical data regarding the total enrollment in this Charter school of students with disabilities and nondisabled students who are provided education services on December 1, 2005, and the settings in which school age students with disabilities are provided educational services.

  1. Section B, Table 1, Report of Students with Disabilities By School District of Residence, will:

To be counted in this report, each student with a disability, on December 1, 2005, must meet all of the following criteria.

Federal law and regulation require that State education agencies ensure an unduplicated count of students with disabilities. Before submitting the PD-1C/4C report, please complete local verification procedures to ensure that each student is counted only once. Such verification procedures may include visual scans, computer scans or other methods; and are especially important for Charter Schools having several school buildings and for students receiving multiple special education programs or services.

The State Education Department (SED) will confirm the accuracy of information included in this report as part of the program review process, or as is otherwise indicated. To facilitate such review for your school, please maintain a list (hard copy or other readily retrievable format) of all students included in this child count until June 30, 2013. Upon completing local verification procedures, if it is determined that one or more counts are incorrect a revised child count (i.e., PD-1C/4C form) must be submitted to SED and a revised Section B, Table 1 must be provided to the appropriate school district(s).

Compared to last year’s PD-1C/4C form, the 2005-2006 PD1C/4C report is modified in the following ways:

During 2005-2006, Strategic Evaluation Data Collection Analysis and Reporting personnel may be available to conduct a limited number of regional training programs regarding the various special education data forms (i.e., the PD forms). If you feel that such training would be useful, please contact your local Special Education Training and Resource Center (SETRC). The data collected through the PD forms are used in the following reports and activities:

If you have any questions or are in need of assistance in completing this report, please contact the SEDCAR Unit by using the contact information provided in the letterhead. Thank you.

Certification and Assurances

I have reviewed the information reported on this form and certify that this is a complete and accurate count of students with disabilities served on December 1, 2005. I further certify that the students reported were enrolled in this Charter School, had a current Individualized Education Program and received special education programs or services in accordance with State standards.

I understand that the sub-allocation of federal funds to this Charter School will be based upon this count. If the reported count is lower than the actual count, additional funds will not later be claimed. If the reported count is higher than the actual count, a downward revised PD-1C/4C report will be submitted to the School District(s) of students’ residence and to the State Education Department, and funds received for those erroneously counted will be returned to the appropriate school district(s).

I assure that federal, State and local procedures will be completed to receive a sub-allocation of IDEA funds from each school district of students’ residence.

  3. Wherever students are to be reported by age, please report age as of December 1, 2005.

  4. If specific instructions for some tables are not provided below, they are included above each table of the PD-1C/4C form.

Directions for Selected Sections and Tables

Section B, Table 1: Provide the number of students with disabilities by public school district of residence by age ranges 4-5 and 6-21. Report all students with disabilities who are enrolled in the Charter School and who are provided special education services by the Charter School or by the public school district. The total number of students reported in this table must be equal to the number of students reported in Section A, Table 1, Line 4. This report must be submitted to the State Education Department and also to each school district of residence to assist them with sub-allocating a proportionate share of federal IDEA funds under Sections 611 and 619 for each Charter School.

Section C, Report 1, Table 1: Report the number of students with disabilities who are educated in regular school buildings and removed from regular classes for "Less than 20%", "21% to 60%", or "More than 60%" of the school day or school week. "Regular school buildings" are buildings for both disabled and nondisabled school age students. "Regular classes" are classes for both disabled and nondisabled school age students. Time outside of regular classroom is a measure of the extent of removal from the regular classroom setting, NOT of the total amount of special education services provided. It is the percent of each school day or week that a student receives special education including related services, apart from nondisabled students while within a regular school building. For purposes of these data collection, students in the following settings should be reported in Table 1 (regular school buildings):

In order to determine the percent of time students receive services outside regular classrooms (i.e., in rooms/groupings attended by students with disabilities only), it is important to consider where the service is provided rather than the type of service that is provided. To calculate the percentage of time outside the regular classroom, divide the number of hours the student receives special education and related services outside the regular classroom each day or week by the total number of hours in the school day or school week. Use the length of the entire school day, including all periods and lunch. The following examples are provided for purpose of clarification:

Section C, Report 1, Table 2: Report the number of students with disabilities who are educated in separate educational settings. These are settings that are attended by students with disabilities only. The definition of each separate educational setting follows:

Special Public Day Schools- Include public day schools that are attended by students with disabilities only. These schools include public school district or Charter School or BOCES buildings that are attended by students with disabilities only.
