Students with Disabilities who are 5 years old and in Kindergarten must have Special Education Program Setting Code Populated and not equal to 201 (Regular Early Childhood), 203 (Separate Class), or 204 (Service Provider Location)

Understanding the Error:
If a student turned 5 by June 30th for EOY or Census Day for Fall 1, and in Grade Level = KN and the most recent SPED record for the same LEA has Education Plan = 100 (IEP) and Meeting Type = 10 (Initial) or 20 (Annual), the Special Education Program Setting Code is not populated or populated with Education Program Setting Code 201 (early childhood setting), 203 (Separate Class), or 204 (Service Provider Location)

Suggested Resolution:
Verify the Education Plan Type Code is correct.
Verify the Special Education Program Setting Code is correct.
OR
If the student is age 5 as of June 30th for EOY or Census Day for Fall 1,and in kindergarten, the Special Education Program Setting (and General Education Participation Percentage Range Code) should be populated with an appropriate School age Least Restrictive environment (LRE). To resolve this error, submit an amendment on the most recent IEP meeting record that overlaps the report period with the field(s) updated to the appropriate school age setting.
