In 2009, California introduced CALPADS, the state’s official longitudinal data system used to maintain individual-level data. Data housed within CALPADS include student and staff demographics, course data and section information, discipline, assessments, and other vital information. For many charter schools in California, the transition to CALPADS introduced a challenge in collecting and maintaining quality data.

With each passing year, your CALPADS data is becoming more and more critical to funding (LCFF), accountability (defining of subgroups), and assessment functions (TOMS & Smarter Balanced). The necessity of submitting accurate data to CDE is vital to the success of your school.
