The CALPADS Student Program is used to submit student program eligibility and participation information. Reported data is determined based on the specific program and time of the collection.
CALPADS uses Transaction Processing functionality with the records in this file. Users are able to determine if records should be added/updated, deleted, or replaced when submitting the file. This file is part of the Fall 1 and End of Year 2 collections and can also be submitted as frequently as necessary to maintain accurate student records. The State Format (Caret Delimited) should be used when submitting information to CALPADS.
Report Logic
Students report one record per program code, even if they have multiple enrollments during the date range. Multiple program records with the same code report if applicable.
- Program Codes 200 or 201 are not reported; they are only used as indicators for Unaccompanied Youth or Runaway Youth in association with Program Code 191-NNN.
- References to Program records other than 181 or 182 are the same as flags.
The Academic Year for End of Year Reporting is July 1 through June 30 of the following year.
The Program Start Date reports for students in Programs 101, 108, 113, 122-NN, 162, 185.
The Eligibility Start Date reports for students in Programs 127, 135, 191-NNN and if the student has Free or Reduced eligibility in the reporting range or on the reporting date.
- When FRAM is reported as a program code, the most recent FRAM record does not report if the start date is prior to July 1 for the current active year.
- If the most recent record is outside of the date range selected on the extract editor, the FRAM record that is within the selected date range reports.
Date Range and Eligibility Dates
- If a Date Range is entered, students who are actively enrolled in the reporting calendar at any time during the Date Range and who have Start or End Dates (participation or eligibility for Programs 101, 127, or 135, participation only for the other programs) within the date range for any of the above programs report. Students who have an active FRAM Eligibility of Free or Reduced that starts or ends within the Date Range entered report. Students with a Program of 101 report if the Program Start and End Dates are within the Date Range ONLY if they do not have Eligibility Dates entered, whether those dates are in the range or not.
- If a Program 181/182 has an Eligibility End Date past June 30 of the calendar year, the extract reports the student's enrollment end date.
- If a Program 181/182 has an Eligibility Start Date before July 1 of the calendar year, the record does not report.
For Provision 2 and 3 schools:
- Students who have any FRAM eligibility (Free or Reduced, Program 181 and 182) between the Provision Base Year and Provision End Year report a record for each year they are enrolled in that Provision School.
- If the student is marked as Direct Certification, the Direct Certification Start Date is used on the report for each year subsequent for that student.
- Students who do not have eligibility records do not report.
If the student's previous primary enrollment end status is E155 or E150:
- The 504 Program report when the start date is prior to the calendar start date.
- The earlier of the start date or eligibility start date reports on the Education Membership Start Date
- Secondary enrollments are ignored, as are summer school enrollments.
If the student has previous primary enrollments with any end status other than E155 or E150:
- Only reports the record if the start date is within the calendar start date and end date.
- The earlier of the start date or eligibility start date reports on the Education Program Membership Start Date.
- Secondary enrollments are ignored, as are summer school enrollments.
If a student has no previous enrollments, the record only reports if the start date is within the calendar start and end date. The earlier of the start date or eligibility start date reports on the Education Program Membership Start Date.
For Program 181 and 182 assigned to a student with a Primary Disability, the Program Start Date reports as follows:
- When a student has multiple start dates in a calendar time period for Free or Reduced (or combination), the earliest of the two start date. If one record has an end date with no start date in the calendar year (July (July 1 to June 30), and the other has a start date, only the record with the start date reports.
- When a student has multiple FRAM programs with start dates within the calendar date range and using the Effective Date, logic looks for a previous FRAM record with a start date within the date range and reports that start date if it exists. Otherwise, the start date of the program active on the effective date reports.
- When a student has multiple Educational Program, the first start date of those program codes, the last record's program code reports. For example, a student has with a Program 181 from August 1, 2016 to September 1, 2016, and a Program 182 from September 5, 2016 through the end of the year, Program 182 reports with the August 1, 2016 start date.
State Exclude
Students do not report when:
- Their enrollment record is marked as No Show or is marked as State Exclude.
- The Service Type on the Enrollment Record is marked as N.
- The Calendar of enrollment is marked as State Exclude.
- The Grade Level of enrollment is marked as State Exclude.
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:
- Assign the Gender of X: Non-Binary in the standard identify fields.
- Assign the Protected Identity Information Legal Gender of M: Male, F: Female, or X: Non-binary.
- Save the record when finished.
Report Editor
The following describes the CALPADS Student Program editor.
Field | Description |
---|---|
Reporting Date | All enrolled student records as of this date are included within the report. When submitting a file for Fall 1, Spring, or EOY to CALPADS, users should only enter a Reporting Date. Use the last day of school for EOY. |
Date Range | The Date Range used when reporting changes in program data. Only students who are actively enrolled and who have Program Start/End dates within this date range report. Users who wish to add new records or modify existing CALPADS data should enter the appropriate Date Range when generating the report. CALPADS Student Program data can be reported for a Reporting Date and Collection type or a defined Date Range. When submitting records to CALPADS, users should enter a Reporting Date, usually Info Day (Fall) or the last day of school (EOY), and select the proper Collection. When submitting modifications or new program records to CALPADS, users should enter the appropriate Date Range. |

Collection | The report collection. Options are Fall and End of Year. Report logic varies based on the Collection selected. |
Transaction Type | Defines how report data is processed when imported into the CALPADS system. Options:
|
Enrollment Type | Selection enrollment type reports only those students who have the selected enrollment type. If a selection is not made, all reportable enrollments are included in the report. |
Format | The format of the generated report. When submitting data to CALPADS, select the State Format (Caret Delimited). |
Select Programs | Lists program code and program name of each reportable program. Selected programs are the only programs that report. |

Report Ended Eligibilities | When marked, the start and end dates of any ended eligibility programs report. When not marked, the record of a student's latest eligibility program reports. |
Generate Using Enrollment Dates | When marked, Program Membership Date logic reports the student's Enrollment Start and End Date, rather than the first day the student's selected program participation became effective. Use this checkbox to report programs that are not ended on a yearly basis. This affects the reported values of the Education Program Membership Start Date and Education Program Membership End Date fields. |
Ad hoc Filter | Allows users to filter report data based on Ad hoc filters. |
Calendar Selection | Select the calendar of enrollment from which to pull student data. Calendars can be chosen by the active year, by the school name or by the year. |
