Dates

The data reported should be based on the entire 2021-22 school year, including summer, up to one day prior to
the start of the following school year.

When to Report Zero (0) and When to Use Blanks (i.e., NULL Values)

Zeroes represent an actual count or number for fields that are applicable to a given school or LEA. Report a zero
("0") only if the LEA has collected the information and the amount to report for that field is zero. Do not report a
"0" for data not collected. Leave a field blank if the LEA does not collect data for that field, if the amount asked is
unknown, or if the question does not apply to the LEA.

Not Applicable (NA) and Zero (0) Autofills in Tables

The online tool remembers information that has been entered in other tables and modules and uses that
information to fill related tables with either a Not Applicable (NA) code or zero (0) where appropriate. For
example, if it is reported that a school does not have any female students who are EL, then other tables that ask
for counts of female students who are EL will be automatically filled with a zero.

Key Definitions

  • The SAT Reasoning Test (SAT) is a nationally recognized assessment used to indicate college readiness. The SAT
    (formerly the Scholastic Aptitude Test) is sponsored by the College Board.
  • The ACT Test (ACT) is a nationally recognized assessment used to indicate college readiness. The ACT is sponsored
    by ACT, Inc.
  • Nonbinary means not exclusively male or female. Transgender students may be reported as male, female, or
    nonbinary.

Special Definitions

  • For a school that already disaggregates student enrollment data to include nonbinary students, the nonbinary
    category in the SAT/ACT module is OPTIONAL.
  • For a school that does NOT already disaggregate student enrollment data to include nonbinary students, the
    nonbinary category in the SAT/ACT module is SKIPPED.

Logic

Report the distinct total number of students who took the SAT Reasoning Test (SAT), ACT Test (ACT) or both.

  • Count students who have an Assessment record with a Date in the reporting school year.

      -  Assessment must have a National Code = ACT or SAT.
      -  Assessment date must overlap with the reporting year. Use 7/1/xx to 06/30/xx for school year dates.
      -  Only count the student once if they have multiple assessment records that meet the reporting criteria.

  • Use the Regular School Year Enrollment, Gender & Race/Ethnicity logic to determine if a student is eligible to report.
  • The students CRDC Grade Level must be = Grade 9, 10, 11, or 12.
  • Only count students in the EL and IDEA data elements if they are selected and saved in the Regular School Year IDEA Students and/or Regular School Year EL Students category mappings.
Report "0" if there are no students that meet the reporting criteria.
In the question detail screen, an override column will be next to the results with a text box to select a value.

  • Year, NCES School Number, School Name, Students PersonID, State ID, Name, Grade Name, ACT, SAT, IDEA, EL.
