Decision tree help for determining Program Setting for LRE:
- Preschool LRE Decision Tree Ages less than 5 or age 5 in preschool only

When updating Program Setting -> Verify% in Gen. Ed. values in case they are changing too.
How to fix program setting:
- Change it and archive it and report as of plan effective date, the report event date of the archive.
- Change it prior to next meeting and let meeting archive plan report the new program setting as of the plan effective date.
- Find an older archive that has bad data, fix it and resend as PLAN Only. (Click here for more information on reporting specific archives.)
PLAN0619F1 errors result in when students who have a perfectly good preschool appropriate program setting in their PLAN file in CALPADS now, will be turning 5 and in Kindergarten prior to the upcoming Census date in October typically. This is happening year round but a majority of the updates occur at the beginning of each school year.
In addition to looking for students who will have outdated plans if not replaced prior to LEA Approve, we also need to look at students turning 5 years old who may still have blank % in Gen. Ed values.
The tools SIRAS has available now for this task can be found under /predefined queries/compliance concerns.
