Special education activity without a special education goal
Revenue and expenditure in resources 3300-3405 and 6500-6540 (objects 1000-8999) must carry a special education goal (5000 series) or goal 7110 (Nonagency-Educational). Resources 3307, 3309, 3312 and 3318 (early intervening services) are excluded.
The usual causes
- District-wide charges allocated into 6500 with goal 0000 (utilities, copiers, insurance)
- Special education revenue coded to goal 0000
- A program goal like 1110 used on special education payroll
The repair
- Recode the goal to the matching 5000 series goal (5001 unspecified, 5710, 5730, 5750, 5770 by placement) or 7110 where it applies.
- Check the crosswalk that allocates district-wide costs into 6500 so next year's entries carry the goal.
What the tool shows
Lists each resource and goal pair with line numbers and shows a correcting entry using a 5000 series goal already in the file. Rows under $10 are ignored, matching CDE's log.
