List of frequently asked questions for CALPADS Fall 2 submission.

What is New to Fall 2?

Below are expected changes in CALPADS for Fall 2. Please note that some of the listed changes may have not been implemented yet.

CERT Errors to CDD Conversion (Fall 2 )

Remaining certification errors will now be converted to Certification Data Discrepancy (CDD) errors. This means, LEAs will now be able to correct possible snapshot errors even before the snapshot revisions are activated for a specific submission.

CVR #	CVR to CDD#	Error Short Message	Error Description	Level

New Fall 2 Validations

SDEM

Starting with 2024-2025 there will be a new validation requiring active staff to have a Staff Demographic (SDEM) record for the current AY. The expectation is that Staff Service Years LEA and Staff Service Years Total are updated annually. The Effective Start Date needs to be between 7/1/2024 and 11/1/2024. Staff Service Years LEA and Staff Service Years Total are used in assignment monitoring reports, SARC, and federal reporting.

Rule #	Error Message	Error Level	Error Description	Trigger
SASS0695F2	SASS record does not have an SDEM record with Effective Dates for the same AY	Fatal	SASS record must have a corresponding SDEM record with an Effective Start Date on or before the Fall 2 Through Date.	If SEID (8.07) in the SASS record for the current Academic Year is not 9999999999 AND For the same SEID, Reporting LEA, and AY, no SDEM record exists where the Effective Start Date is in between 7/1 - Fall 2 Report Through Date (inclusive)

SASS

A new validation will be implemented that will require SASS records with a Non-Classroom Job Classification of 6018 (Employee on Leave) to have a FTE% greater than 0%. As context, in 2014 an IVR was added to force the FTE to be 0 for Employees on Leave (Non Classroom Based or Support Assignment - 6018).

Now that Fall 2 data is being used for assignment monitoring and federal reporting on the Teaching Assignment Monitoring Outcome (TAMO), the FTE should be populated for Employees on Leave. A validation will be modified requiring the FTE to be >=1. Use the FTE that the staff would be reported at if they were not on leave. Error number Pending.

SCSCE

Rule #	Error Message	Error Level	Error Description	Trigger
SCSE0641F2	No Student Course Section Data for a Primarily Enrolled Student	Fatal	No student course section data submitted for a primary enrolled student (excluding school-age students [5-22] on IEPs parentally placed in private schools on settlement agreement [enrolled at the district-level in CALPADS]).	If a currently enrolled SSID (1.08) on Census Day with Enrollment Status Code (1.24) \= Primary (10), in Grade Level TK - 12 of an Expected School where the SENR.School of Attendance \<> SENR.Reporting LEA (Students with regular enrollments at the school level) AND has no SCSE record from the enrolled school in the current Academic Year
SCSE0693F2	No Student Course Section Data for a Non-SWD Student Primarily Enrolled at the District Level	Fatal	No student course section data submitted for a primary enrolled non-SWD student.	If a currently enrolled SSID (1.08) on Census Day with Enrollment Status Code (1.24) \= Primary (10), in Grade Level TK - 12 of an Expected School where SENR.School of Attendance \= SENR.Reporting LEA AND SSID (regardless of LEA) SWDS Special Education Status Code on Census Day is not 1 - Eligible And Participating (includes having NO SWDS status at all) (students enrolled at the district level or IRC without an IEP). AND has no SCSE record from the enrolled school in the current Academic Year

PSTS

A new validation will be implemented that will require PSTS records submitted for students must have previous SCTE record.

Rule #	Error Message (Error Short Message)	Error Level	Error Description	Trigger
PSTS0694F2	CTE PSTS student must have a previous SCTE record	Fatal	If PSTS Education Program Participation Type Code \= 20 (CTE), then the student must have a SCTE record for any prior Academic Year.	If Education Program Participation Type Code \= 20 AND No SCTE records exist, regardless of Reporting LEA, for the same SSID where the SCTE CTE Pathway Completion Academic Year ID \< submitted PSTS Academic Year Note: The SCTE record does not have to be at the same Reporting LEA as the PSTS record, but the validation would only trigger for the LEA reporting the PSTS record. Checks that the PSTS record is effective during the Academic Year before triggering.

CTE Course Updates

Course Section File Field 9.27 No Longer Used

• Field 9.27 - CTE Course Section Provider Code on the Course Section (CRSC) file is no longer used and is a “filler” field. Any data populated in this field will result in the file being rejected upon input.

Content Area Category

• In reports: 2.5, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.6, 3.7, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11
• Previously, CTE Course Codes 7000-8999 populated as “Career Technical Education” in the Content Area. They will now be categorized as a more specific subject area, e.g., “Computer Education” or “Music”. Other courses (9000+) may be recategorized as well, so that they are in more accurate categories.
• Since Content Area is derived from the Course Group Master Valid Code Combinations, there is no action required on the part of the LEAs. LEAs may review what Content Area courses have been mapped into in the Valid Code Combinations document.
• This will more appropriately reflect all courses in Content Area on DataQuest

What files should LEAs submit for Fall 2?

• Staff Demographics (SDEM)
• Staff Assignment (SASS)
• Course section Enrollment (CRSE)
• Student Course Enrollment (SCSE)
• Postsecondary Status (PSTS)

Note: Except for the PSTS file, all Fall 2 files must be submitted and posted in the sequence listed above. Also, you should be aware of the default file upload processing method employed by each file.

Staff who should be reported in this submission

Data associated with the following staff should be included in this submission:

• Certificated employees employed in certificated positions in school districts, county offices of education, charter schools, schools administered by the Department of Corrections, Division of Juvenile Justice, or State Special Schools. Note that even if a given employee is on temporary leave, they should still be included.
• University interns or district interns authorized by the Commission on Teacher Credentialing and employed in certificated positions in school districts, county offices of education, charter schools, schools administered by the Department of Corrections, Division of Juvenile Justice, or State Special Schools.
• Non-certified instructors who are employed in charter schools and who are providing non-core, non-college prep instructional services, and who have SEIDs.
• Non-certificated administrators in school districts or county offices of education working at the levels of assistant, deputy, associate superintendent, or higher, who have SEIDs.
• Non-certificated administrators in charter schools, who have SEIDs.
• Substitute teachers (long-term and short-term) as defined by the individual districts.
• Itinerant teachers teaching at multiple sites within a district. Itinerant teachers may or may not be in the master schedule at a site.
• “Pull-out/push-in” teachers, also known as “resource teachers,” teaching at multiple sites or at one site. Generally, these teachers are not in the master schedule.
• Individuals on provisional internship permits, short-term staff permits, or teacher/emergency permits.

Staff who should NOT be reported in this submission

Data associated with the following staff should not be included in this submission:

• Certificated employees in adult education or preschools.
• Certificated employees in before- or after-school child care programs that do not include instructional programs designed to meet requirements for promotion or grade-level standards.
• Classified employees in non-certificated positions below the level of assistant, deputy, or associate superintendent.

Determining Which Teacher to Report

LEAs should always report the “teacher of record” (as defined in Education Code section 44809). This means always report the teacher of record unless the position is VACANT*.

*A "Vacant teacher position" means a position to which a single designated certificated employee has not been assigned at the beginning of the year for an entire year or, if the position is for a one-semester course, a position to which a single designated certificated employee has not been assigned at the beginning of a semester for an entire semester.

What is Teacher of Record?

This pertains to the permanent teacher contractually responsible for the instruction of the pupils in the classroom and maintenance of the school record/register (as defined in Education Code section 44809)

Note:

• If the teacher of record is on leave and will not return until some time during the school year (i.e. it could be after October 31), it is still that teacher who should be reported on Census Day.
• If the teacher of record is ill on Census Day, that teacher should still be reported.
• If no permanent teacher was assigned to the class on Census day due to vacancy or hiring is still in process, the substitute teacher teaching on Census day will be reported as the teacher of record.

How to Report Teachers

Below are guidelines on how to report teachers based on different teaching scenarios.

How to Report Special Education Assignments

Reporting assignments for staff serving students with disabilities in Special Education

Special day classes should be reported in one of two ways:

• If the teacher is providing instruction in a self-contained setting, then the State Course Code should be 1000 - Self-contained and the Instructional Strategy Code should be populated with 700 - Special Education;
• If the teacher is providing the student's primary a departmentalized setting, then LEAs should select the appropriate State Course Code that aligns with the content that the teacher is teaching. Additionally, the Instructional Strategy Code should be populated with 700 - Special Education;
  

Special Education Support - Resource Specialist Programs assignments:   If the teacher is providing SUPPORT instruction (supplementary to their primary instruction) in any subject to students with disabilities (pull-out or push-in)

• the teacher should be reported with a Job Classification Code of 27 - Itinerant/Pull-Out/Push-In
• the teacher should be reported with State Course Code 9231 - Special Education Support-Resource Specialist Program (RSP)
• the Instructional Strategy Code should be populated with 700 - Special Education.
• LEAs may, but are not required to submit Student Course Section Enrollment records for students that are receiving the support instruction from this teacher, as long as the Staff Job Classification Code for the teacher is 27 - Itinerant/Pull-Out/Push-In
• RSP Teachers should NOT be reported as "co-teachers" when they are providing pull-out or push-in support for students with disabilities who have been mainstreamed into general education classes.
  

Staff providing special education services such as occupational and physical therapy or speech and language pathology

• Staff providing special education services (not instruction) should be reported in the Staff Assignment (SASS) File with the appropriate Non-Classroom-Based or Support Assignment Code. Course sections should not be reported for these staff.

REMINDER: Instructional Strategy code 700 should ONLY be used for courses specifically designed for students with disabilities where all students enrolled are students with disabilities

What classes should be reported for Fall 2?

Include all Course Section Enrollment (CRSE) records occurring on Census Day or for school tracks that are not in session on Census Day, the course submission includes the course sections that begin no later than 30 calendar days after Census Day. This is required for all K-12 students. Do not include lunch, before/after school programs, or preschool course sections.

Courses that must be submitted	Optional courses that can be submitted	Courses that should NOT be submitted
Academic core and Non-core courses	Student Assistant (where student receives grades or credits)	Lunch Period
Special Education	Home Room, Study Hall (where student receives grades or credits)	Summer School
Home Hospital	College	Before/After School Program
Distance Learning		Free Period
Independent Study		Preschool
		Adult Education

Reporting 9999999999 SEIDs

SEID 9999999999 MUST ONLY be reported in the Course Section file. Do not submit a SDEM or SASS record with it.

May be used for:

• College professors with no K-12 credentials
• Courses identified as college courses in CALPADS will not generate an exception
• Contracted employees (COE, other districts, ROC/Ps, outside agencies) This will generate an exception, LEAs must provide evidence that educator holds appropriate credential and authorizations in CalSAAS

May NOT be used for:

• Charter school teachers
• Non-credentialed charter teachers must minimally obtain a Certificate of Clearance which will issue them a SEID
  

Using SEID 9999999999s outside of the college course reporting will almost always generate an exception.

SEID 9999999999 may only be used for the following courses without getting flagged as a mis-assignment:

• CTE Courses (State Course codes 7000 -8999)Courses with Field 9.19 - Course Instructional Level Code populated with:
• Code 23 - College Credit Only, or

• Code 24 - Dual Credit.

• College Credit Course codes: 9020, 9082, 9096, 9120, 9154, 9200, 9227, 9273, 9303, and 9358.

Important Note:

Although CALPADS will continue to allow the use of SEID 9999999999s, wherever and whenever possible, and if information is available, LEAs should:

• Use the teacher’s actual SEID
• Submit a Staff Demographic Record for the teacher at the LEA in which they are providing instruction
• Submit a Staff Assignment Record for the teacher at each school in which they are providing instruction
  

Who are the students you should report with a Student Course enrollment?

You would include all Student Course Enrollment (SCSE) records occurring on Census Day (10/05/2022) or for school tracks that are not in session on Census Day, the student course enrollment submission includes the student course sections that begin no later than 30 calendar days after Census Day. Do not include lunch, free period, or preschool student course sections.

How to pick the correct course codes

Picking appropriate state course codes for each class should involve curriculum staff and should not be the job of the CALPADS data person. The CALPADS Help desk may go as far as point users to resources need to make the appropriate state course code selections. With that said, when picking a state course code:

• Determine content of the course

• Which standards were used to develop the course?

• What are the grade level standards being taught?

• DO NOT choose the course code based on the teacher’s credential or student grade levels

How to Report EL Services

There are four data elements that comprise the full English Services information of each English Learner.

What is the Postsecondary Status (PSTS) File?

The Postsecondary Status (PSTS) file will be used by LEAs to submit post-secondary status data for:

• CTE Pathway Completers as required by Perkins V as part of Fall 2
• Students with Disabilities (SWD) as required by the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) as part of End-of-Year 4

Since the PSTS file will be used for two purposes, not all of the fields on the PSTS file are required for the Fall 2 PSTS CTE submission.

You may review the PSTS page for more details.
