School
Lists all districts in the state. Select the district in which the student attends CTE programming.
CATE Entry Date
The entry date indicates the day the student entered into the CTE course or program. If the student enrolled, then exited and is now re-enrolling, enter the date the student is re-enrolling in the CTE program. If a student exits a course or program and re-enrolls, you should submit two records for this student. This may be done during the B-O-Y, the M-O-Y, or the E-O-Y submissions.
The first record indicates the first date the student entered the CTE course or program, along with the first entry code. Also included in this record are the first exit date and exit code. The remaining fields for the submission should be based upon these entry and exit dates – for example, the days in attendance should only include the number of days between the entry and exit dates.
The second record should indicate the entry date when the student re-entered the CTE course or program along with the re-entry code. If applicable, an exit date and exit code may also be entered. The remaining fields should match the time period between the re-entry date and the exit date, especially the days in attendance.
CATE Entry Code
Indicates the code assigned to the student upon entry to the program.
CATE Exit Date
The exit date is the last day the student was enrolled in the CTE program or course. This may be the day the student completed the program, graduated high school without completing the program, or withdrew for any of the reasons listed on the Exit Codes list for CATE.
CATE Exit Code
The CATE exit code denotes the reason the student exited a Career and Technical Education program or course If the student exits and re-enters the program, then multiple records will be submitted. Any time a student exits a program, a record should include both the entry and exit codes and respective dates.
CATE Enrollment Status
Enrollment status must be entered for the time period for which a student is enrolled in a CTE course or program. This must be reported for each individual student. For example, a student may enter school on September 1, leave school on September 22, and then re enter on November 14 for the rest of the school year. In this situation, two records will be submitted and the enrollment status will correspond to the individual time periods.
Transportation Mode
A student is considered tuitioned when the student is attending a Career and Technical Education program in a CTE Center which is located in a district that is outside the district in which the student is enrolled in high school. When a student is tuitioned to a CTE Center, transportation charges may be eligible for reimbursement by the State to the sending district. Different rates apply to different forms of transportation.
Program Completer
A student is considered a program completer when that secondary student has completed 90% (or more) of the program competencies of a career and technical education (CTE) program at the level of proficient or better. This information must be included on the EOY. The BOY and MOY do not require this information.
Industry Recognized Credential
Indicates in which assessment the student was evaluated. See the New Hampshire Department of Education website for a current list of credentials.
As part of the Consolidated Accountability plan required for the US Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), the NH DOE needs to determine students' Career and College readiness based upon their achievement on several indicators. The Career and College Readiness (CCR) Submission is a Required submission for all districts with a high school (grades 9 12). This includes charter school districts. The collection is due at the end of the school year, to coincide with the EOY Enrollment Submission, and must be certified by the Superintendent or other authorized official. Submit data for all 12th grade students, regardless of school completion status. Students should be included in the CCR every year in which they are reported as a 12th grader, including special education students who remain as 12th graders until they have aged out of their special education program. Do not include students who completed high school prior to 12th grade (e.g., 11th graders who graduate early). A student's Career and College readiness is inclusive of their entire high school career. Districts may report a student's attainment of identified CCR indicators that occurred at any point during the student's high school tenure, from grade 9 through grade 12.
Career Pathways
Career pathways are an integrated collection of programs and services intended to develop students’ core academic technical and employability skills provide them with continuous education. This is used to record a student's completion of a career cluster program within the school. Completion of a career cluster program is different than, and separate from, completion of an industry wide credential.
Apprenticeship Program Participation
Indicates a student's participation in an approved apprenticeship program.
Concentrator
A concentrator is a secondary student who is enrolled in the second half of a career and technical education (CTE) program.
Work
