B.E.D.S DAY INFORMATION CENTRAL ISLIP PUBLIC SCHOOLS Wednesday, October 5, 2011
Important • Do not bubble in CORRECT pre-printed information.
School Code • Those of you who are new in this district should print the numbers in the squares from left to right as they appear on the chalkboard. Those of you with preprinted forms should check the school code preprinted on the document with that shown on the chalkboard. • If you work in more than one school building or in the district’s central office, fill in the first eight digits as they appear on the chalkboard and fill in the last four squares with zero. • Those of you with preprinted forms should make no entry for school code on the mark-sense form unless the code is incorrect on the document (e.g., this year’s building assignment is different from last year).

Social Security Number • Those of you without preprinted forms must complete this item on the green form. Remember to print your Social Security number before blackening the appropriate mark-sense spaces.
Gender • Everyone should first write the correct code letter – “M” for male or “F” for female – in the square provided just below the title of the item. Then blacken the appropriate mark-sense space.
Degree Status • This item calls for the highest degree you hold at this time. The degree status for those whose highest degree is a one-year normal school certificate would be “Freshman year completed,” while those with a two-year normal school certificate would be “Sophomore year completed.”
Professional Development • Did you receive “high quality professional development” in school year 2010-11? You must check either “yes,” “no,” or “not applicable.” “Not applicable” pertains to first-year teachers, teachers on leave in 2010-11, and teachers who had 2010-11 If you are teaching a class in a “core academic subject” and you leave the item blank, your non-response will be treated as a “no.”
Educational Experience • The first segment of this item is “Years in the District.” A very important point to remember for the first segment is that this year counts as one full year of experience in this district. The first segment on a preprinted form already includes the current year. Please verify that the current year is included on your form. Those of you without preprinted forms who must complete the first segment should remember to right-justifyyour response and fill the blank space to the left with a zero if you have fewer than 10 years of experience in this district.
Total Years in Education • The next segment “Total - (Including Nonpublic)” will consist of all years in education, including other public school districts, nonpublic schools, and college or university experience. The total segment must be equal to or greater than the first segment.
Number of Months in District • The first part of “Number of Months Employed Per Year,” refers to you as you are currently employed on a 10 month basis. • The second part asks for the percent of time you are employed in this school district. For most of you, the entry will be 100 percent.
Date of Birth • “Date of Birth” is broken up into month, day and year. A numeric response is required for each. Remember to right-justify your response and fill any blank space to the left with a zero. For the year of birth, only the last two digits should be entered, for example, “38,” “45” or “62.”
Current Annual Salary • On the mark-sense form, please record your annual salary, as of today, to the nearest whole dollar. Report the total amount you are paid for your primary assignment(s). Do not include any extra pay received for extra services. • This entry has been entered by your Principal.
Current Salary (cont) • Please note there are six squares for the salary item. If your current annual salary is less than $100,000, be sure to right-justify your response and fill each blank space to the left with a zero.
Check • At this time, you should recheck the items on side 1 before turning to side 2. Any items missing, preprinted incorrectly, or containing asterisks; “Professional Development” #6 “Current Annual Salary.” #10
TEACHING ASSIGNMENT INFORMATION • Elementary Team Teachers should report one Common Branch assignment (ACODE = 2612) representing their primary homeroom assignment. • Inclusion teachers should use the Consultant teacher assignment codes. • Except for the variations just noted, teachers should complete one assignment block for each class taught.
Reporting should be based on the following guidelines: • kindergarten, common branch and other teachers who spend the entire day with the same class will complete only the first assignment block • kindergarten teachers who teach two half-day sessions should complete a second assignment block and • elementary and secondary school teachers who have different groups throughout the day should complete one assignment block for each class they teach to a different group of students, and for each different course they teach to the same group.
Teacher Assignment Information • Laboratory classes offered in conjunction with science courses should not be reported if the lecture and lab are taught to the same group of students by the same teacher. • Remember that only teachers of students with disabilities should report an assignment using special education program codes.
Teacher Assignment Information Finally…. do not report study hall assignments or duty periods on this form.
Assignment Code • In the first segment, enter the appropriate four-digit assignment code in the four squares provided and blacken the appropriate mark-sense spaces.
Grade Level • For the assignment you are recording, enter the predominant grade level of the students. • The following are general rules for determining grade level: • If 75% or more of the students in your class are in any one grade, please enter that grade. • If less than 75% of the students are from any one grade, enter an “M” for mixed.
Registration • Under “Registration,” record the number of students in the particular class or assignment reported. • Teachers of half- and quarter-year courses should only report the number of students they are currently teaching and should not report second semester or second/third/fourth quarter classes.
Number of Weeks per Year • The next segment is headed “Number of Weeks Per Year,” and is to be completed by all teachers. • Because your response need be only an approximate figure, everyone will use the same numbers for full-, half- and quarter-year courses. • Please use the figures below: 40 weeks for a full-year course; 20 weeks for a half-year course; and 10 weeks for a quarter-year course.
“HIGHLY QUALIFIED” FOR EACH TEACHING ASSIGNMENT • If a teaching assignment is in a “core academic subject” identified by the NCLB, you must select either “yes” or “no” to show whether you are “highly qualified” for the teaching assignment. • If you are “highly qualified,” select “yes.” • If you are not “highly qualified,” select “no.” • If a teaching assignment is not core, you must select “Not Core.”
Final Check Those persons with only one assignment, e.g., kindergarten, common branch or special class for students with disabilities, need not go beyond this point. Those of you with more than one assignment should proceed to complete the remainder of the assignment blocks, one for each assignment, in the order that they are numbered.
Thank you for your cooperation! Certification or licensure status for each assignment reported on the BEDS Survey will be transferred electronically from Teacher Certification files located at the State Education Department in Albany to the individual’s BEDS record. January 2, 2020
