Recommended correction path

  1. 1

    Identify the exact snapshot row

    Match the student, school, LEA, academic year, and census/snapshot revision implicated by SENR0660F1.

  2. 2

    Compare the authoritative source

    Use the owning SIS, program, language, enrollment, or special education record. English learner program staff establish ELAS and LIP facts; the SIS/EL system owns source values; the CALPADS coordinator reconciles SELA, SPRG, and SENR.

  3. 3

    Test the complete rule

    Calculate age using authoritative birth date. Verify the grade is within the rule. Review the complete SELA timeline. Do not convert TBD to ADEL automatically; establish the actual status pathway.

  4. 4

    Choose the supported transaction

    Add the supported resolved ELAS event or correct the proven birth, grade, or enrollment error.

  5. 5

    Correct the source and resubmit

    Repair the authoritative record or extract mapping so the next submission will not recreate the discrepancy. Allow all dependent transactions to post in chronological order.

  6. 6

    Regenerate and reconcile

    Refresh the Fall 1 snapshot, confirm the error clears, and reconcile 1.0 Certification Errors; 2.8 ELAS Count by Primary Language; 2.9 ELAS Census Comparison; 2.10 ELAS Census Comparison Student List; 2.14/2.15 Language Instruction Program reports. Aggregate and student-level results must agree.
