    PDE-375 – Listing of Juveniles Incarcerated in Adult Facilities and Participating in an Education Program in Accordance With Section 1306.2 of School Code

    A. Complete the PDE-375 using the type-in .PDF form found on the web site at www.education.pa.gov. Click on Teachers & Administrators, then Child Accounting, then Forms for Juveniles Incarcerated in Adult Facilities.” If a computer printout is used in place of the PDE-375, it should include all data columns shown on the PDE-375. Additionally, the statement explaining the purpose of the form should accompany the copy of the printout sent to the resident school district. (See “Note to School District of Residence.”)

    B. Complete heading information: Name of Host School District, County, Administrative Unit Number (9-digit code), Contact Person, Telephone Number and Extension, Days in Session, Signature of Superintendent, Date and School Year. If the host school district has students in the adult facility, a form must also be completed with the host school district as the school district of residence.

    NOTE: Host school district should retain in their files separate forms completed for those students classified as “1306 wards of the state” (students whose school district of residence cannot be determined) and “out-of-state” (students whose parent or guardian resides outside of Pennsylvania). 

    C. The PDE-375 – Preliminary Report should be completed with membership data through a cutoff date that is compatible with school district processing and corresponds with the upload of PIMS (Pennsylvania Information Management System) Collection 3-Child Accounting SD and IU Preliminary JIAF Collection. This preliminary collection occurs in March. 

    D. A copy of the PDE-375 – Preliminary Report and a copy of the PDE-375 – Year-End Report should be sent to the resident school district at the time they are completed. A copy should also be retained in the host school district’s files for review by auditors.

      NOTE: The PDE-375 – Preliminary Report completed in conjunction with the PIMS Collection 3 in March should include the names of each nonresident student in the adult facility during the current school year through the cutoff date. The PDE-375 – Year-End Report should include all students educated at the adult facility during the school year.

    3. Percent Nonspecial or Special Ed: Indicate whether the student is in a nonspecial education program or a special education program (student has an Individualized Education Plan).
