Dates

Report data from the 2021-22 school year. The data reported should be as of October 1 (or the closest school day to October 1). This is known as a “Fall snapshot.” LEAs should use the same Fall snapshot date to report data in this module. 

The count of students with disabilities (IDEA) may be based either on the Fall snapshot date or on the district's IDEA child count date.

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

English learner students (EL): In coordination with the state’s definition based on section 8101(20) of ESEA, as amended by ESSA, the term ‘English learner,’ when used with respect to an individual, means an individual:

(A) who is aged 3 through 21;

(B) who is enrolled or preparing to enroll in an elementary school or a secondary school;

(C) (who is i, ii, or iii)

  • (i) who was not born in the United States or whose native language is not English;
  • (ii) (who is I and II)
  • (I) who is a Native American or Alaska Native, or a native resident of the outlying areas; and
  • (II) who comes from an environment where a language other than English has had a significant impact on the individual’s level of English language proficiency; or
  • (iii) who is migratory, whose native language is a language other than English, and who comes from an environment where a language other than English is dominant (Please note that “migratory” typically refers to students who move repeatedly from one residence to another); and

(D) whose difficulties in speaking, reading, writing, or understanding the English language may be sufficient to deny the individual3

  • (i) the ability to meet the challenging state academic standards;
  • (ii) the ability to successfully achieve in classrooms where the language of instruction is English; or
  • (iii) the opportunity to participate fully in society.

Note:

  • To be classified as an English learner, an individual must be A, B, C, and D.
  • For C, an individual can be C-i, C-ii, or C-iii.
  • If C-ii, the individual must be I and II.
  • For D, an individual may be denied D-i, D-ii, or D-iii.

EL programs are English language instruction educational programs designed for EL students.

Nonbinary means not exclusively male or female. Transgender students may be reported as male, female, or nonbinary.

Student enrollment refers to the unduplicated count of students on the rolls of the school. The unduplicated count includes students both present and absent and excludes duplicate counts of students within a specific school or students whose membership is reported by another school. Students should be counted in the school where they physically and/or remotely attend for more than 50% of the school day. For distance education, students must be counted in the school from which they receive more than 50% of their coursework.

Students with disabilities (IDEA): Students with intellectual disabilities; hearing impairment, including deafness; speech or language impairment; visual impairment, including blindness; serious emotional disturbance; orthopedic impairment; autism; traumatic brain injury; developmental delay; other health impairment; specific learning disability; deaf-blindness; or multiple disabilities and who, by reason thereof, receive special education and related services under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) according to an Individualized Education Program, Individual Family Service Plan, or service plan. The “Students with Disabilities (IDEA)” column in the survey items always refers to students with disabilities who receive special education and related services under IDEA.

Students with disabilities (Section 504 only): Students with a disability, who receive related aids and services solely under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, and not under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). The “Section 504 only” column in the survey items always refers to students with disabilities who receive related aids and services under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, and not under IDEA.

Special Instructions

  • Students must be counted in the school where they physically and/or remotely attended for more than 50% of the school day. If a student attended two schools, each for exactly 50% of their school day, then count that student at their "home" or "primary" school, rather than at the school of a special program, such as a vocational program.
  • For a school that already disaggregates student enrollment data to include nonbinary students, the nonbinary category in the Enrollment module is REQUIRED.
  • For a school that does NOT already disaggregate student enrollment data to include nonbinary students, the nonbinary category in the Enrollment module is SKIPPED.

ENRL-1: Student Enrollment

Click here to expand...

Instructions: For schools and justice facilities, grades K-12, UG. 

For the Fall 2021 snapshot date, enter student enrollment. Enter the number of students who were enrolled in grades K-12 (or the ungraded equivalent).

  • Students must be counted in the school where they physically and/or remotely attend for more than 50% of the school day.
  • For students with disabilities (IDEA), report data based on either the IDEA child count date or on October 1 (or the closest school day to October 1). For all other entries, report data based on October 1 (or the closest school day to October 1).
  • Note: Student enrollment will also be used for skip logic within tables. For example, if a school reports zero K12 male Asian students, then subsequent tables with the same reporting period will not require data to be
    entered for K-12 male Asian students.
