The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the collection and reporting of data on EDE, beginning in SY 2019-20. The Department urges abundant caution when using the data and recommends reviewing the relevant data notes prior to use or interpretation. This includes data on state assessments, graduation rates, and chronic absenteeism.

2022-2023 COLORADO 118, 178 655 Participation The count of Homeless Students Enrolled in one or more of grades 3-8 was less than the sum of students reported as homeless in Academic Achievement in Reading/Language Arts in that grade. This applies to 19 LEAs. Homeless status is self-reported by the districts in two separate collections, assessment collections & student end of year and have different reporting time periods. District found an issue with their student information system impacting the homeless data field during the 2022-2023 end of year collection that is responsible for the difference between the two collections. Unfortunately, the issue was not identified until after the 2022-2023 student end of year collection was closed. The district has rectified this situation for the 2023-2024 reporting year. We are continuing to increase training, resources, and communication to help districts accurately report this information. We are also investigating ways to increase data checks across state collections.
2022-2023 ARIZONA 118, 178 655 Participation The count of Homeless Students Enrolled in one or more of grades 9-12 was less than the sum of students reported as homeless in Academic Achievement in Reading/Language Arts in that grade. This applies to 3 LEAs. The counts of homeless students reported for Homeless Students Enrolled and Academic Achievement are calculated separately and have different edit rules.
2022-2023 MASSACHUSETTS 118, 178 655 Participation The count of Homeless Students Enrolled in one or more of grades 3-8 was less than the sum of students reported as homeless in Academic Achievement in Reading/Language Arts in that grade. This applies to 81 LEAs. MA MCAS data counts a student as "homeless" so long as they were identified as homeless as any point in that school year. The Homeless Enrolled file considers a student homeless within an LEA if they were specifically categorized as homeless by their attending LEA. Therefore, the business rules for the Homeless Enrolled file are more restrictive and result in fewer counts than the more general approach of the assessment files.

2022-2023 MASSACHUSETTS 178 876, 877 Performance Please see state comment for additional information regarding the state’s data submission Homeless counts have increased by more than the 10% threshold. This is due to the statewide trend of increased homeless student enrollment, so this increase in the assessed homeless student count is to be expected.
2022-2023 RHODE ISLAND 175 874, 875 Performance Please see state comment for additional information regarding the state’s data submission Year to year comparison for FCS subgroup has been verified and data is correct.
2022-2023 TENNESSEE 175 874, 875 Performance Please see state comment for additional information regarding the state’s data submission State Executed Tool State Submission Plan Comments: 2022-23 Files due January 10, 2024 Assessment Files (FS175, FS178, FS179, FS185, FS188, FS189) Subgroups Overall, the foster care population grew substantially (7%) in 2022-23 leading to double-digit growth in math, rla, and science assessment participation and achievement counts. Foster care participation rates rose in all three assessment although the increase in the rla participation rate (4.5 percentage points) was somewhat higher than the increases in the participation rates in math (3.9 percentage points) and science (3.3 percentage points). The 19-20% increases in homeless math, rla, and science assessment participation and achievement counts were roughly proportional to the 28% increase in the homeless student population. Double-digit increases (15%-16%) in LEP participation counts in math, rla, and science assessments reflected double-digit growth (11%) in English learners. LEP participation rates in math, rla, and science assessments declined by approximately 6% due to the rapid growth of English learners (11%) in the state and disproportionate growth in non-participants. English learners enrolled for two or fewer years in U.S. schools were required to take math, ELA and science assessments, but they are included as non-participants (NPART) in EDFacts participation reporting and were excluded from performance reporting in EDFacts achievement files. Due to high mobility and related disruptions, assessment participation rates for migratory students tend to be lower than for non-migratory students. And given the small size of the migratory student population, modest reductions in participation in math (-17) and science (-28) assessments led participation rates to fall by 6% - 7%. Grades The decrease in the number of twelfth graders enrolled during the math and rla assessment periods exceeded the reduction in students taking the math and rla assessments, thereby raising the participation rates by 5%-6%.
