DATA MANAGEMENT ALERT

Update for FY 2024 to Integrity Rule: -40031

An update to an integrity rule for FY 2024 will be introduced into the integrity process on SPED data shortly. This rule continues our effort to validate SPED reporting further and ensure clean data for the state.

A one-sheet Integrity Tool is available on our AzEDS SPED Reporting webpage for troubleshooting tips. An updated error message has been added to our SPED Integrity Rules Reference document.

Please note: This alert does not indicate that your entity is failing this rule. Please check your INTEG15 report in the AzEDS Portal to determine if your entity is failing any SPED Integrity Rules. 

Integrity Rule -40031

This rule validates that SPED Needs reported for students attending a school site are approved to service those needs according to the applications submitted by those entities.

This rule will now validate approved needs for all public and non-public school sites.

As a result, this rule will also fail for any student reported with the EDP need but who is not attending a site approved for EDP. All public schools sites approved for EDP are listed on the Emotional Disabilities Private/Public (ED-P) Program web page.

PEAs failing this integrity error and that are not listed as approved for EDP, please contact the ESS Private Day EDP Inbox with questions.

PEAs that fail the rule and that are listed as being approved for EDP, please contact ESS Data Management.

If the student failing this integrity error attends an approved private day school, PEAs can validate the approved needs on the Private Special Education Schools web page list.

Please contact the ESS Data Management inbox with any questions regarding this update.
