“Online” Schools


Online schools are schools that offer courses, credits, and diplomas via the Internet. As New York State does not currently register online schools, students who leave a New York State district or school to attend an online school should be exited using a dropout enrollment code.

Postsecondary Students


Students who leave a district to attend a postsecondary institution prior to earning a high school diploma and are awarded, by that postsecondary institution, the final high school credits needed for graduation, must be reported by the high school issuing the diploma, even if these students never returned to the high school. The high school should report these students in the SIRS using the Reason for Beginning Enrollment Code 0011 and date, the appropriate Reason for Ending Enrollment Code and date, the credential earned, and career pathway code used. If students are enrolled both in a high school and in a postsecondary institution, they should be reported as enrolled in the high school.

Preschool/Prekindergarten/Universal Pre-K


The term “preschool” means children referred to the CPSE for special-education eligibility determination (i.e., those with a Reason for Beginning Enrollment Code 4034) and students receiving preschool special-education services (Reason for Beginning Enrollment Code 0011). Both groups use the Grade Ordinal “PRES” to report under the data element “Grade Level.”

The term “prekindergarten” means students who are enrolled in a prekindergarten program that can be a Universal Pre-K (UPK) program or other Pre-K program. Students reported in any Pre-K program should be four years of age on or before December 1 or otherwise first eligible to attend Kindergarten in the next school year with the exception of students enrolled in the following grant programs:  Expanded Pre-K for 3 & 4 Years Olds or Prekindergarten for Three Year Olds (3PK).  Note that a student should only be reported as Pre-K if he/she is in either a UPK or other Pre-K program that is operated by the school district or under contract with the district or in a Targeted Pre-K program operated by any one of three approved BOCES. 

Regardless of the type of Pre-K program, students in Pre-K should be reported with Reason for Beginning Enrollment Code 0011. Building of location codes should be reported as follows:


  • students attending Pre-K programs in a school within the district should be reported with the school BEDS code as the location;

  • students attending Targeted Pre-K programs operated by Madison-Oneida, Questar III, or Herkimer BOCES should be reported with the BOCES BEDS code as the location;

  • students attending Pre-K programs operated under contract with the district (other locations) should be reported with the first eight digits of the district’s BEDS code followed by 0666 as the location.

Universal Pre-K programs are Pre-K programs funded pursuant to Section 3602 e of Education Law. These programs are operated by the school district or by other eligible agencies under a contractual agreement with the school district. Any child whose Pre-K placement is funded solely by the allocational UPK grant must be reported with a program service code 902 (UPK). Children whose half-day UPK placement has been converted to full-day using the Priority Prekindergarten grant, Statewide Universal Full-day Prekindergarten grant, Pre-K Expansion for 3 & 4 Year Olds grant, or federal Preschool Development Expansion grant should be reported with program service code 902 (UPK) and grade level PKF (full-day).  Failure to code such children as UPK may result in a reduction in the amount that a district can be reimbursed for the prekindergarten services it provides during the school year.  In addition, all UPK students must be reported with one of the following program service codes that identifies the UPK program setting: 1309 (District-operated), 1320 (Day care center), 1331 (Head Start), 1342 (Family or Group Day Care), 1353 (Nursery School), 1364 (BOCES), 1375 (Special Ed 4410 Preschool), 1386 (Nonpublic School), 1397 (Museum), 1408 (Library), or 1419 (Other).  See the Program Services Codes and Descriptions section of this manual for additional information.

Students in any other type of Pre-K program other than UPK should be reported with a program service code 990 (Other Pre-K).  This includes students in:



  • new half-day Pre-K placements funded by the Priority Prekindergarten grant or Pre-K Expansion for 3 & 4 Year Olds grant;

  • new full-day Pre-K placements funded by the Priority Prekindergarten grant, Statewide Universal Full-day Prekindergarten grant; Pre-K Expansion for 3 & 4 Year Olds grant; or federal Preschool Development Expansion grant; and

  • Targeted Pre-K programs operated by Madison-Oneida, Questar III, or Herkimer BOCES.

P-Tech Programs



P-Tech Programs are programs in which students earn a Regents diploma, get  workplace experience, and receive an Associate’s degree or credits towards one over six years of high school. Students in these programs qualify for ELL, disability, and FRPL services throughout the entire six years of the program.
Students enrolled in an NYS P-Tech Program must be reported with Program Service Code 4026; students enrolled in an NYC P-Tech Grades 9-14 Early College and Career High School program must be reported with Program Service Code 4027. Students enrolled in either program must be reported with a program beginning date. Students who exit the program while still enrolled in school must be reported with a program end date indicating when they exited the program.  Report the number of years the student has been in the program in the Program Duration field of the Program Facts table.  Students in these programs may be reported as Grade 12 in their 4th, 5th, and 6th year in the program. P-Tech students enrolled in year 5 or year 6 should continue to have daily attendance reported in SIRS.  This includes P-Tech students engaged in work experience or taking college level courses.  Report via all required templates up until graduation. Students in years 5 and 6 should be reported in Student Lite, Entry Exit, Programs Fact, Attendance Codes and Student Daily Attendance templates. Students reported in one of these programs, in Grade 12 (or ungraded secondary 14 if applicable), and with a Program Duration of 5 or 6 will not be included in the participation rate calculation for secondary-level ELA and math accountability.
Report students enrolled in either of these programs who:
      fulfill the requirements for a Regents diploma and are remaining in the program with Reason for Ending Enrollment Code 0065 (Fulfilled HS Grad Req for Extended Integrated HS Program) and an appropriate Credential Type Code, Career Pathway Code, and Post-graduation Plan when they fulfill the requirements for the Regents diploma.  Re-enroll these students with Reason for Beginning Enrollment Code 0011 the following school year.

       fulfill the requirements for a Regents diploma and are exiting the program and the school with Reason for Ending Enrollment Code 799 (local or Regents diploma) and an appropriate Credential Type Code, Career Pathway Code, and Post-graduation Plan.

       fulfill the requirements for a Regents diploma, continue in the program, but subsequently decide to leave the program and exit school with a Reason for Ending Enrollment Code 0068 (Exited Extended Integrated HS Program After Fulfilling HS Grad Req) when they decide to leave the program and school.

       complete all three parts of either program — high school diploma, workplace experience, and Associates Degree or credits toward an Associates Degree — with a Reason for Ending Enrollment Code 0067 (Completed Extended Integrated HS Program).

       exit the program but not the school with the appropriate program end date.

       exit the program and the school without fulfilling the requirements for a Regents diploma with the appropriate Reason for Ending Enrollment Code.
