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.
