The Department of Education offers quarterly windows for districts to review, for accuracy and comprehensiveness, the data that has been entered and reported to us. It is our hope that review of this data on a more regular basis will save district personnel time and work at the end of the year, and that it will provide time for analysis and to make any necessary corrections.
The certification period for Quarter 2 (Q2), which includes attendance, behavior, bullying, and truancy, opens January 1st. Review and certification are required by January 15th. Superintendent certification is required for all quarterly reports.
Attendance data certification can be found here, and guidance on reporting attendance can be found here.
Behavior data certification can be found here, and guidance on reporting behavior can be found here.
Bullying data certification can be found here, and guidance on what constitutes a reported incident of bullying can be found here.
Truancy data certification can be found here, and guidance on reporting truancy can be found here.
