Fields concerning participation in Upward Bound or Upward Bound Math-Science and status in secondary school

23

Target School – NCES Identification Numbers, at first entry into project

NCESSchID

Provide the 12-digit NCES school identification number for the secondary school the Upward Bound student attended at time of entry into the project. For “rising” 9th graders (those first served the summer between completing 8th grade and starting 9th grade), provide the NCES school identification number for the school the student attended (or will attend) as a 9th grader.

The number can be obtained from the following Web site:

http://nces.ed.gov/ccd/schoolsearch


666666666666 = Private school, non-parochial

777777777777 = Parochial school

888888888888 = Home school

999999999999 = Not applicable

000000000000 = Unknown



24

Date of First Project Service

ProjEntryDT

Format is MM/DD/CCYY, e.g., 09/15/2006

MM = 01 – 12

DD = 01 - 31

CC = 19 - 20

YY = 00 - 99

00/00/0000 = Unknown


Accuracy is particularly important for this field. For new students, use the date the student first received service from the Upward Bound project that is submitting this report. Do not use date of acceptance into project unless that is the same as the date of first service. Students first served in the summer program should have a date of first project service no earlier than June 1.

Use the original date of service at this project even if the student subsequently left and reentered. If the student transferred from another UB project, in this field give the date of first service at the project submitting the report.

You do not need to provide the exact day; you may use 15 (midpoint of the month).


25

Grade Level, at first service

EnterGradeLV

8 = Rising 9th-grader (summer between 8th grade and 9th grade)

9 = 9th grader (not a valid option for students first receiving service in the summer program)

10 = Rising 10th grader (summer between 9th grade and 10th grade) or 10th grader

11 = Rising 11th grader (summer between 10th grade and 11th grade) or 11th grader

12 = Rising 12th-grader (summer between 11th grade and 12th grade)

13 = 12th-grader

15 = In 5th year of high school (only for students participating in a dual enrollment program that entails a 5th year of high school; includes “rising” summer period)

14 = Other

0 = Unknown


Accuracy is particularly important for this field. For new students, enter the grade at the time he or she first received UB services from the project that is submitting the report. For students served first during the summer component, select “rising” 9th grader for those students who had completed 8th grade and would be entering 9th grade in the fall term. For all other students first served during the summer component, enter the grade the student would enter for the fall academic term (for example, for students first served in the summer between ninth and 10th grades, the correct code is 10).


If the student was first served on any day in June, consider that student to have been first served in the summer before the coming fall grade, even if school was still in session on the student’s first day of service. For example, if your project first served a student on June 3 in the waning days of 9th grade, consider that student to have been first served in the summer before 10th grade, not in 9th grade. The code for the student would therefore be 10.


If the student transferred from another UB project, in this field give the grade level at first service in the project submitting the report. (For continuing and prior-year participants, use data entered in the earlier APR.)



26


Deceased or Incapacitated

Deceased

1 = Deceased prior-year participant

2 = Permanently incapacitated prior-year participant

0 = Unknown


For this report, please use the following definitions:


A new participant is an individual who participated in the Upward Bound project for the first time in this reporting period and who meets the definition of participant in 34 CFR 645.6 of the program regulations. (Please refer to field #24, Date of First Project Service, on establishing the date of first service for new participants served initially in the summer program.)


For Upward Bound Math-Science, a participant should be considered new if the reporting year is the first year the student has participated in the Upward Bound Math-Science project, even if the student has previously participated in a regular Upward Bound project.


A continuing participant is an individual who participated in the program in both the current reporting period and the reporting period immediately preceding.


A reentry participant is a former participant of the project submitting the APR who did not participate in the program during the previous 12-month reporting period but who has received services on a continual basis during this reporting period.


A prior-year participant is an individual who participated in the Upward Bound program in a previous reporting period but who has not received services on a continual basis during the current reporting period.


A transfer participant is a former participant of a UB or UBMS project other than that submitting the APR who joined the current project during the reporting period, either with or without a hiatus between projects. Students who leave a UB project to join a UBMS project, or leave a UBMS project to join a UB project, are not considered transfer participants.


The sum of the number of new, continuing, reentry, and transfer participants should equal the total number of participants the projects served during the reporting period.

9.999 = Not applicable, prior-year participant

0.000 = Unknown GPA, or grading scale could not be converted to a four-point scale


Report the GPA based on a four-point scale. If the participant’s school used a four-point scale, enter the GPA provided by the school; if not, convert other scales to four-point to the extent possible. If a student’s GPA on a four-point scale exceeded 4.000 for such a reason as completing honors or Advanced Placement courses, the project may enter a score that exceeds 4.000; the allowable scale, however, remains four-point.

0 = Unknown


Fields #38 and #39 will be used to calculate the PE objective on academic performance as reflected in standardized tests; while this is calculated only for seniors, data should be reported and updated as necessary in each reporting year. If, for example, an 11th-grader passes both assessments at the proficient level in reporting period 2012–13, the project will choose option 1 both in 2012–13 and (unchanged) in 2013–14, reflecting the student’s senior year; the PE calculation for the student will occur in 2013–14.


To be counted toward meeting this objective, a current-year senior participant must achieve the proficient level on state high school assessments in both reading/language arts and math.


Projects must only use assessments that specifically indicate whether the student achieved at the proficient level.

This field is used to establish the cohort of students who will form the denominator for each project’s postsecondary completion objective and for certain performance measures. Once established, the value in this field will not be adjusted in later years. The cohort for each project year includes current (i.e., those served during the reporting period) and prior-year participants who graduated high school during the academic year and enrolled in postsecondary education by the fall term immediately following the high school graduation date.

For current and prior-year participants who actually graduated from high school in academic year 2012–13, grantees must choose 2013 or 9999, depending on whether the participant qualifies for the 2013 cohort. Participants who have not yet completed high school should be coded 8888.

Please see General Instructions for further information on the postsecondary education enrollment cohort, particularly as regards 2008–12.


Once a postsecondary enrollment cohort has been established and submitted in an APR, it will not change in a later reporting year.
