Fall 2 Reporting & Certification v2.0

Data Submission – Student

In addition to Student Enrollment information, a student’s English Language Acquisition Status is key to identifying English Learners (ELs) on Census Day. CALPADS uses Effective Dates to manage this Student Information (SINF) data.

• The Student Information record must be effective on Census Day

STUDENT INFORMATION

• The ELAS Student Information record must be effective on Census Day• The ELAS Start Date on the effective Student Information record

determines whether the student is EL on Census Day

English Language Acquisition Status (ELAS) Code

– Required for all Grade Levels ELAS Start Date

– Required unless status is “English Only” or “TBD”

Student Proficient or Advanced – Required if ELAS Code is

Reclassified FEP (RFEP)

Fall 2 Reporting & Certification v2.0

Data Submission – Staff

STAFF DEMOGRAPHICS

Data is captured by Effective Start Date and Effective End Date -- much like Student Information data

Each LEA submits a staff demo record for a specific staff person -- instead of one record for all LEAs as with Student Information data

Each LEA uses the same Statewide Educator Identifier (SEID) for the staff member’s demo record

CALPADS maintains changes in staff demographics over time by Effective Dates

23

Fall 2 Reporting & Certification v2.0

Data Submission – Staff

STAFF ASSIGNMENT

Batch Submission– By default, CALPADS uses replacement processing for staff

assignments – Each submission removes all existing assignment data for the school

for an Academic Year and replaces it with the new data for the school for the Academic Year

– Delete removes all existing assignment data for a school for the Academic Year

Online Transactions– Update/Delete modifies/deletes existing school data for a staff member

for an Academic Year

CALPADS maintains Staff Assignmentsby School for each Academic Year

Data Submission – Staff

KEY POINTS

1. A Staff Demographic record must exist in CALPADS for a SEID to submit the Staff Assignment record

2. Each LEA has its own Staff Demographic record for a specific staff person

3. Staff Demographic data are submitted each year to update information such as Years of Service

– Effective Date is used to determine which record will be used– Most recent for the reporting period

31

Fall 2 Reporting & Certification v2.0

Data Submission – Staff

KEY POINTS

4. Staff Assignment data are submitted each year (for Fall 2 ONLY) to report Job Class, FTE, and assignments for non-teaching staff

– By School and Academic Year for Staff Assignments, fully replacing existing data for each Academic Year and School

5. Staff data are updated in CALPADS– As needed for Staff Demographics as staff enter and leave

employment within the LEA– Annually for Staff Assignment data for Fall 2 reporting*– Staff reported last year who are no longer employed will need

Employment End Date populated.

* Does not need to be updated throughout the year

32

Fall 2 Reporting & Certification v2.0

Data Submission – Staff

KEY POINTS

6. CALPADS determines which staff to report for the Fall 2 report period by

– Identifying the most recent demographic record that is effective during the Report Period

Teachers in tracked schools are Census Day + 30 days Admin and Pupil Services staff employed on Census Day

7. Staff Demographics and Assignments cannot be submitted for non-district employees (ROC/P teachers, contractors)

Fall 2 Tips

Staff Demographics and Assignments cannot be submitted for staff without SEIDs

Staff Demographics and Assignments cannot be submitted for non-District employees (e.g. ROC/P teachers, contractors)

Before deleting a staff demographic record– Delete all related records first (assignments, course-sections)

For classes with more than one instructional strategy, the recommended reporting hierarchy is:

– Special Ed– Home/Hospital– English Learners

81

Fall 2 Reporting & Certification v2.0

Data Certification

KEY POINTS

1. All aggregate reports must be reviewed and verified for accuracy

– Best Practice is to print reports for review and verification, have staff sign and date that the information is accurate

2. Supporting reports provide detail

3. There are five aggregate reports and thirteen supporting reports. Allow plenty of time for review by staff

4. Remember batch submission rules when resolving errors related to staff assignment, course-section and student course-section data.

5. LEA Administrator role does not have access to view certification reports.

CERTIFICATION REPORT – Business Rules

NCLB Compliant Course Section - An NCLB compliant course section is a course section designated as an NCLB core course that is being taught by a highly qualified teacher. A course section is compliant if NCLB Core Course Indicator = E (Elementary Core) or S (Secondary Core) and HQT Competency Code not = N (Not Highly Qualified).

English Learner Education Services - An English Learner Education Service is an education service provided to an English Learner that is delivered through a course section. A student is receiving an EL Education Service if the student has a Student Course Section record associated with (i.e. same Course Section ID as) a Course Section record where Education Service Code is not null.

– If a student is receiving multiple EL Services at a school, the student is counted in only one service If a student is receiving "Primary Language Instruction” (Code = 1) and any other EL Service, the student is

counted as 1 If a student is receiving “ELD Instruction and SDAIE Instruction But Not Primary Language Instruction” (Code =

4)” and one or both of 2 and 3 (and not 1), the student is counted as 4 If a student is receiving "ELD Instruction Only” (Code = 2) in a course section and "SDAIE Instruction Only”

(Code = 3) in another course section without 1 or 4 in a course section, the student is counted as 4

– If a student is receiving only one EL Service at a school, the student is counted in that service– If a student is not receiving an EL Service at a school, the student is included in “No Service” count

Data Submission – Course

KEY POINTS

1. Course Section must be posted before Student Course Section

2. A Course Section ID is an identifier for a Course Section assigned by a local educational agency. This is not a course section “number.” Generally it will be a combination of the local course name and course section number. This ID ties a specific student to a specific course section and it ties all of the information about that course section to the student. The Course Section ID must be unique by Academic Term, except when Multiple Teacher Code field is populated for a Course Section.

Fall 2 Reporting & Certification v2.0

Data Submission – Course

KEY POINTS3. A Class is defined as a specific instance of a course where one

or more Course Sections are delivered to one or more students by one or more teachers. In most cases, a Class would represent a specific teacher teaching a specific Course Section to a set of students at a specific time at a specific location. In another scenario, a class could represent one teacher teaching multiple Course Sections to groups of students at the same time in the same location. For this scenario, the CALPADS Class ID identifies the Course Sections that are occurring together.

4. A Class ID allows multiple course sections to be counted as one class for class size analysis and enrollment reporting. It is a unique identifier, assigned by the LEA or school submitting the data, that represents a unique class within the submission.

It must be unique within a school for the Academic Year. 96
