P-223H Form and Audit Updates for 2020-2021

WA P-223 Form and Audit: Version 1.31
WA P-223H Form and Audit: Version 1.14

The Audit part of the P-223H Form and Audit report is updated for the 2020-2021 school year.

• The birth-2 category is no longer reported, so students under the age of 3 are no longer counted.

• The K-Age 21 category is now split and two new columns are added to the audit file to show which students are counted in each category:K-Age 21 Tier1: those spending at least 80% of their time in a general education setting (LRE Code equal to 1), andK-Age 21 Other Tier: those spending less than 80% of their time in a general education setting and any other setting as well (LRE Code not equal to 1). This is determined by the LRE Code values in a student's special education enrollment records overlapping the report date.

Note:

• There is no update to the P-223H Form as the PDF requirements are not available from the department of education as yet.

• There is no update to the P-223 Form and Audit report. Its version is incremented because some of the P-223H updates were made to code that is shared with P-223.
