It seems to me that you are not using the correct DN.
The DN "dc=ccsd,dc=k12,dc=ny,dc=us" is the top level of your directory, 
isn't it?
The schema for this entity (dcObject) has no field "userPassword", try 
to see
if it contains sub-entities such as 
"cn=something,dc=ccsd,dc=k12,dc=ny,dc=us"
(i.e with simpleSecurityObject schema) and try to use it.

Keep in touch
