To: The I.4.see Pilot Group:

This morning, we changed the race codes in the data dictionary for i.4.see. We have now aligned the race codes with the values you have used in prior ESS submissions. The one difference from ESS is that the old code Asian or Pacific Islander has been broken into two new codes, Asian and Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander. This change was made to meet Federal reporting requirements.

I apologize for any inconvenience if you have already started the process to submit SASIDs. If you have already extracted the data and used the Race codes we had defined as of last week, we can correct them once you submit them.

Please e-mail i4seeHelp@ed.state.nh.us with any questions.

Mike
