Why the code must describe the actual service

Title I Part A Targeted Assistance is student-level reporting at schools operating a targeted assistance model. The service code describes what Title I-funded help the identified student received. It is not a generic “Title I” marker, a local intervention code, a course code, or a code borrowed from another CALPADS field.

Do not choose the first code that passes validation. Confirm the service category with the Title I program owner and use the current CALPADS code-set definition.

Recommended correction path

  1. 1

    Verify targeted-assistance status

    Confirm the school’s Title I model for the Education Service Academic Year.

  2. 2

    Trace the rejected value

    Determine whether the bad value came from a local intervention code, an outdated crosswalk, a different code set, or a formatting loss such as 05 becoming 5.

  3. 3

    Verify delivered service

    Match the student to current participant and service records maintained by the Title I program.

  4. 4

    Use the current state value

    Translate the documented service to the exact two-character code 05–13. Preserve a leading zero where applicable.

  5. 5

    Correct the system and audit

    Repair the source crosswalk, resubmit, and review other records produced by the same mapping.
