Appendix 23: Glossary of Terms Marianna Islands, Puerto Rico, US Minor Outlying Islands, and US Virgin Islands are not considered immigrants. Individualized Residential Alternative (OPWDD). A facility providing room, board, and individualized protective oversight (14NYCRR 686.99(l)(2)(iii)). Initial Evaluation for Special Education Services. The evaluation that must be conducted whenever a preschool-age child or a school-age child is referred to the Committee on Preschool Special Education (CPSE) or Committee on Special Education (CSE) for an individual evaluation to determine if the child is first eligible for specialeducation services. An initial evaluation is also conducted for a previously eligible student who was declassified or for a student who was previously evaluated and determined ineligible who is later referred to the CPSE or CSE to determine special-education eligibility. A child who is identified as a preschool child with a disability and upon attaining school age is referred to the CSE to determine his or her eligibility for school-age specialeducation services receives a “re-evaluation,” not an “initial evaluation.” Intermediate-Care Facility (OPWDD). Housing providing each person receiving services with room and board, continuous 24-hour-a-day intensive support with medical and/or behavioral services, and training in daily living skills (Part 681 of Mental Hygiene Law). Long-Term Absence. Any student who has been absent without a valid excuse for twenty (20) or more consecutive days as of the last expected day of attendance for the school year should be coded as a “long-term absence.” The date of the 20 th consecutive unexcused absence should be entered as the enrollment record ending date with a Reason for Ending Enrollment Code of 391. If such a student is of compulsory school age and is a resident of the district, he or she must remain on the school register and the school may use Reason for Beginning Enrollment Code 8294. Note: If the student’s last enrollment record for the school year ends with Reason for Ending Enrollment Code 391, the student will be counted in the annual dropout rate in the year reported. If the student, counted as a dropout, returns to school and drops out in a subsequent school year, a Reason for Ending Enrollment Code of 357 should be entered on the student’s enrollment record, if appropriate. This code indicates that the student was counted as a dropout in a previous year and should not be counted in the current year. Medically Excused. Students who are incapacitated by illness or injury during the entire test administration and make-up periods at the elementary/middle level and have on file documentation from a medical practitioner that they were too incapacitated to be tested at the school, at home, or in a medical setting are considered medically excused from testing. These students are not included in the accountability calculations for schools, districts, or the State. Students at the secondary level may not be medically excused from testing. Migrant. A student is a migrant child if the student is, or the student's parents, spouse, or guardian is, a migratory agricultural worker, including a migratory dairy worker or a migratory fisher, and who, in the preceding 36 months, in order to obtain, or accompany such parent, spouse, or guardian in order to obtain, temporary or seasonal employment in agricultural or fishing work: has moved from one school district to another; or resides in a school district of more than 15,000 square miles and migrates a distance of 20 miles or more to a temporary residence to engage in temporary or seasonal employment in agriculture or fishing. All students eligible to be served by programs supported with Title I - Part C funds should have a Certificate of Eligibility signed by a parent or guardian and filed with the Superintendent of schools. 322 Student Information Repository System Manual for 2010–11 Version 6.2
Appendix 23: Glossary of Terms Neglected/Delinquent. • Neglected: Children who have been committed to an institution or voluntarily placed in the institution under applicable State law because of the abandonment by, or neglect by, or death of parents. (Note: this does not include foster children living on a household rather than a group home or institution.) • Delinquent: Children who have been adjudicated delinquent or persons in need of supervision. The term "delinquent children" also refers to students who are placed in an adult correctional institution in which children reside. Noncompleter. Beginning with the 2001–02 school year, any student who dropped out or entered a high school equivalency preparation program will be counted as a high school noncompleter. Each high school’s noncompletion rate (the sum of the dropout rate and the transfer-to-high-school-equivalency-preparation-program rate) will be reported on the New York State School Report Card along with the two component rates. Federal standards require that students leaving high school diploma programs to enter equivalency programs be counted as noncompleters. nySTART. nySTART (New York State Testing and Accountability Reporting Tool) is a Web-based tool (available at www.nySTART.gov ) that provides authorized users with access to assessment and verification reports and New York State Report Cards. NYSVLS. The New York State Virtual Learning System (NYSVLS) is a Web-based tool (available at http://eservices.nysed.gov/vls/welcome.do ) that provides a centralized location for resources and tools of instructional content for teachers to assist students in meeting the State’s learning standards. Online professional development opportunities are also available through NYSVLS. Performance Index. Performance Index is a value from 0 to 200 that is assigned to an accountability group, indicating how that group performed on a required State test (or approved alternative) in English language art, mathematics, or science. Progress Target. For accountability groups whose Performance Index (PI) (in science) or graduation rate (in graduation rate) is below the State Standard, the Progress Target is the PI the group must achieve as an alternate method for making Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) or qualifying for Safe Harbor in English language arts and mathematics. The Progress Target is based a point improvement over the previous year’s performance. Residential Respite (OPWDD). The provision of short-term overnight stays in an OPWDDoperated, certified, or approved site that is not a private residence (14NYCRR 686.99(ag)). Residential Treatment Facility (OMH). A community-based psychiatric inpatient facility designed to provide the level of supervision, medical oversight, and psychiatric treatment required by children and adolescents with severe emotional disabilities (13NYCRR Part 589). Safe Harbor Target. For accountability groups whose Performance Index (PI) in English language arts or mathematics is below the Effective Annual Measurable Objectives (AMOs), the Safe Harbor target is the PI the group must achieve as an alternate method for making Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP). The Safe Harbor Target is based a ten percent improvement over the previous year’s performance. Safety Net. The safety net allows eligible students who fail a Regents examination required for graduation to meet the requirement for a local diploma by passing the corresponding 323 Student Information Repository System Manual for 2010–11 Version 6.2
