What this assignment error means
Code 26 is specifically for a Charter School Non-certificated Teacher. It cannot be used as a generic teacher code at a district-operated or other noncharter school.
Valid, invalid, and unsafe responses
| Situation | Value or condition | Interpretation |
|---|---|---|
| Valid relationship | Code 26 + active charter school CDS | Verify the person and assignment meet the code definition. |
| Invalid | Code 26 + district-operated school | Choose the supported job classification or correct the school. |
| Potential source error | Charter school reported under an incorrect CDS code | Verify the official school record and reporting relationship. |

Recommended correction path
- 1
Locate the exact SASS row
Capture Reporting LEA, School of Assignment, Academic Year, masked SEID, Job Classification, FTE, and all seven support-assignment fields.
- 2
Confirm the educator and organization
Match the SASS row to accepted SDEM history, HR/position-control evidence, the official school/LEA code, and the actual assignment.
- 3
Test the exact rule
- Verify the school’s current charter status in the California School Directory.
- Confirm the exact 14-digit CDS code.
- Review whether teacher code 12 or another classification is appropriate.
- Do not infer non-certificated status merely because credential information is missing locally.
- 4
Find the first divergence
Inspect HR, position control, SIS scheduling, local code crosswalks, joins, and export calculations. Do not treat a job title as a CALPADS classification without checking duties.
- 5
Make the supported correction
Correct the school or job classification from authoritative charter, credential, and assignment evidence.
- 6
Regenerate and reconcile
Confirm SASS acceptance, inspect Staff Profile Report 4.4 and Staff Nonclassroom Based or Support Assignment Detail Report 4.5, and reconcile affected CRSE sections and other staff produced by the same mapping.
