10. 1.All Economic Disadvantaged codes must be updated at the beginning of the school year – an LEA cannot rollover prior year economic disadvantage codes to the current year 2.All students on the Direct Certification (DC) listing are coded as “01” If an LEA was Provision 2 or Traditional and is now CEP ©2014 Region One Education Service Center

13. Can a Provision 2 LEA use DC list for students new to the district? Yes - Use code “01” for these students Once students are coded as “01” from DC list, they should remain “01” for the rest of the school year LEAs can use the monthly DC list to code new enrollees at any point during the year Income Survey can be used to code siblings in the household Additional PEIMS Coding Guidance
