Cumulative Enrollment Extract

(Updated 11/1/2024)

An LEA may request an extract of their SSID information for student’s cumulatively enrolled from the CALPADS ODS through the CALPADS portal. CALPADS will create the extract file according to the user’s specified selection criteria. The SSIDs in the file may be imported into a local student information system and/or used locally on the user’s personal computing system.

CALPADS will extract the SSIDs where the associated SENR record enrollment start date and enrollment end date overlap at least one of the date(s) defined in the filters for the specific School/LEA and the SENR record meets the criteria for Open Enrollment. The file will contain unduplicated extract of SSIDs by school, LEA, and grade level and the most recent associated SENR information. For example, if an SSID has multiple SENR records for the same school with different grade levels during the time period selected, both records for the SSID will appear in the extract.

Record Layout

The Cumulative Enrollment Extract file is structured like the SENR input file with the addition of two fields, upload date and last date updated, at the end of each record. Additionally, the Record Type Code will have a ‘CENR-R’ appended to the Input Record Type Code. The valid Record Type Codes for the Cumulative Enrollment Extract file is provided in table below.
