Overview of Washington Special Education State Reporting Data Integration

The extracts required for compliance with the Comprehensive Education Data and Research System (CEDARS)

reporting requirements will be produced by processes within eSchoolPLUS. The Special Education data

component of CEDARS will be tracked in IEPPLUS. The IEPPLUS PLUS 360 Advanced Integration Module will be

used to periodically transfer this data up to the eSchoolPLUS database so it may be included in the required

extracts.

This document describes:

• File K field descriptions which are required for the CEDARS Special Education component.

• Data Integration Rules that detail each rule and how the CEDARS specific data will be uploaded from

IEPPLUS to eSchoolplus.

• Data Integration Rules required to capture CEDARS-specific Special Education data in the IEPPLUS

database and transfer it to appropriate tables and fields in the eSchoolPLUS database.

• Descriptions of Data Check and Students not Counted Reports.

• CEDARS Appendix W – Special Education LRE codes.

Items in red indicate changes from last year’s specification. Since this is the first year we are delivering State

Reporting to Washington State clients, the difference is not relevant; all required data elements must be

addressed.

File (K): eSchoolPLUS/IEPPLUS Field Mappings

Below is a grid that displays the all CEDARS Special Education fields for File K format. Each special

education field is indicated along with where the field stored in eSchoolplus and/or IEPPLUS. If the

data element is stored in IEPPLUS, a data integration rule will be created. The section labeled “Data

Integration Rule Descriptions” details each IEPPLUS special education field, where the data is stored

and what field in eSchoolPLUS it will be uploaded to.

Data Check and Error Reports:

Both of these reports will need to be developed to facilitate WA Users data cleanup prior to the submission

date. The Data Check Report will contain student identification data (State ID, Student ID, First, Middle & last

Name, Date of Birth, Gender, Race/Ethnicity) and each of the data points required in File “K” that are indicated

to have a Data Integration rule created.

The Data Check and Missing reports in the PA PennData for IU Submissions for 2011-2012 can be used as a good

starting point for these reports.

CEDARS Upload Error Report

This report will identify what students and data did not successfully integrate based on the last time the

integration program ran. Each time the integration program runs, the report is blank and will re-

populate with any errors found during the integration process. SunGard recommends running this

report at least weekly to ensure there are no errors with the upload.

From the Home Page, Run A Report, type CEDARS and click on Search.

Select the CEDARS Upload Error link

The report will start to run and will display a document when completed. To export this report to a pdf,

click on the icon.

The report displays a list of students that have a data element that is not integrating for a particular

reason.

CEDARS Upload Summary report

This report will identify what students successfully integrated based on the last time the integration

program ran. Each time the integration program runs, the report is blank and will be refreshed based

on the data integration selection criteria.

From the Home Page, Run A Report, type CEDARS and click on Search.
