Rule: If California Partnership Academy ID is populated, Education Program Code must equal 113.

  • 3.13 Education Program Code
  • 3.19 California Partnership Academy ID

Why these values travel together

A California Partnership Academy is a California state program generally organized as a grades 10–12 “school-within-a-school” that integrates academics and career-technical education with employer and postsecondary partnerships, mentoring, and work-based learning.

Field 3.13 tells CALPADS which kind of program is being reported; code 113 means California Partnership Academy. Field 3.19 tells CALPADS which specific academy the student attends. A five-character CPA ID has no valid meaning on an SPRG record for a different program.

Choose the correction supported by the student’s record

Verified factField 3.13Field 3.19
Student participates in an official CPA113Exact five-character ID for that academy
Student participates in another reportable programThe correct code for that programBlank
Student is in a local academy/pathway that is not an official CPADo not use 113 solely because “academy” appears in its nameBlank
Participation cannot yet be verifiedResearch before changing the programDo not guess or borrow an ID

Do not automatically change the program code to 113. The academy ID may be the erroneous field. First establish what program the student actually participates in, then make both fields describe that same documented relationship.

Recommended correction path

  1. 1

    Review both submitted values

    Compare fields 3.13 and 3.19 in the rejected SPRG record with the SIS program record.

  2. 2

    Confirm actual participation

    Use student program records and the school’s academy coordinator to determine whether the student participates in an official CPA.

  3. 3

    Verify the academy

    If it is an official CPA, locate the academy in the current CDE directory and confirm its exact five-character ID.

  4. 4

    Align the fields

    For verified CPA participation, submit code 113 with the matching CPA ID. Otherwise, submit the correct program code and clear the unrelated CPA ID.

  5. 5

    Repair the mapping

    Correct any SIS crosswalk that inserts a CPA ID into other programs or assigns program 113 from a generic academy/pathway label.

  6. 6

    Resubmit and audit

    Post the corrected SPRG record and inspect other records created by the same local-program mapping.
