Search Terms: CALPADS Staff Assignment

The Staff Assignment file is used to submit data about staff teaching assignments. This information is reported for all certificated staff (Type 10, 11, 12, 25, 26, 27) who are actively employed on Information Day. Staff members must have a SEID, but staff with a SEID = 9999999999 do not report. Multiple records may be submitted if the staff person has multiple assignments in different schools or different Types.  CALPADS Staff Assignment

Report Logic

All staff who have an active District Employment record and an active District Assignment record with Type = 10, 11, 12, 25, 26 or 27 on the reporting date are included.

  • Staff must have a Staff State ID (SEID) in Census > Demographics > Person Identifiers that is not blank or 9999999999.
  • Multiple records should be submitted if a staff member has multiple District Assignments with different Type codes. (One record per Type code per School. A staff person with three District Assignments with Type 12 in the same School reports one record. A staff person with one District Assignment with Type 12 and one with Type 11 reports two records).
  • Submit Multiple records when a staff member has multiple District Assignments with the same Type code in different schools.
  • In Field 14, the FTE for all active assignments in a school with the same Type are summed for reporting. If the staff person has multiple District Assignments with Types 10,11 or 12, the Non-Classroom Assignment Codes from all appropriate district assignments are reported in Fields 15-21, up to a total of seven unique codes in all district assignments for a given Type.
  • For districts using Campus HR, staff who have multiple Work Assignments report a second row with a (potentially) different Location; the percent reports from the Work Locations Percent field, if populated.

Operational Keys

  • Academic Year ID
  • School of Assignment

This is a FULL REPLACEMENT file. This means that if a file is submitted/posted to CALPADS, and a later file with the same School of Assignment and Academic Year is submitted/posted, the records from the second file are replaced, rather than updated or added to, the records from the first file.

Non-Binary Gender Reporting

Schools can assign students a gender of M: Male, F: Female, X: Non-binary. This is done on the Identities tool and/or the Demographics tool. 

CALPADS Extracts use the Legal Gender field included in the Protected Identity Information to report student and staff identity information.

To record a gender of X: Non-binary, on the Identities tool:

  1. Assign the Gender of X: Non-Binary in the standard identify fields.
  2. Assign the Protected Identity Information Legal Gender of M: Male, F: Female, or X: Non-binary.
  3. Save the record when finished.

Validate SASS Data

Use the Data Validation Report to correct any student data prior to the submitting the CALPADS file to the state. Validation Groups and Validation Rules are provided by Infinite Campus for a specific CALPADS extract (listed below). These groups are used to return certain rules assigned to each group.

Modifications to the Validation Rules and Validation Groups can be made if your district has purchased the Campus Analytics Suite; otherwise, they are read-only. 

Users can select the Missing or Incorrect Data Validation Group, which returns any missing or incorrect data that is reported in the CALPADS Extract, like a missing enrollment exit reason or an incorrect date, for example.

Note that examples refer to CALPADS SENR.
