Introduction to the Common Core of Data (CCD) The Common Core of Data (CCD) Nonfiscal surveys consist of data on the status of public elementary and secondary education submitted annually to the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) by state education agencies (SEAs) in the 50 states, the District of Columbia, American Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, the Department of Defense, and the Bureau of Indian Affairs. In order to provide education data comparable across states, common data items and definitions have been developed and accepted by NCES and by representatives of SEAs over a period of time from the 1950’s to the present. CCD data are sent to NCES by SEA personnel acting as CCD Coordinators, are edited and maintained in machine-readable data sets by NCES, and are used to produce general-purpose publications and specialized reports on the status of education. The principal users of CCD Nonfiscal data are the Federal Government, the education research community, state and local government officials, including school boards and Local Education Agency (LEA) administrators, and the general public. A. What is Revised on This Version of the File? Data for the state of Ohio have been removed from the file because it was learned that Ohio was not in compliance with NCES’s high school dropout definition. II. The Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File: School Year 2000–01 A. Background The Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File was first created starting with the 1997–98 School Year with only dropout data. Prior to the 1997–98 dropout file, dropout data were available only on the Local Education Agency Universe Survey. In 2000–01, High School Completer fields were added to the file. This file is constructed from data collected through the Public Elementary and Secondary School Universe and Local Education Agency Universe Surveys. In addition to the dropout and completer counts, several other fields were created for this file: dropout rates, enrollment bases for the dropout rates, completion rates, and the completion rate bases. Dropout and completer data for a particular year are reported on the Local Education Agency Universe Survey for the following year. For example, 2000–01 dropout and completer data are reported in the 2001–02 Local Education Agency Universe Survey. Calculating the dropout rate requires CCD files from two years, with the number of dropouts reported on the 2001–02 agency file divided by enrollment reported on the 2000–01 school file. 1 Since 1991, the Local Education Agency Universe files have reported dropout data. Dropout numbers and rates were published only for states that conformed with NCES reporting standards. However, in 1999 NCES explored the feasibility of adjusting nonstandard dropout data to make them comparable to data based on NCES standards.1 The feasibility study found that the major type of non-conforming dropout reporting practice, the use of an alternative reporting calendar that takes a snapshot count of dropouts at the conclusion of a school year, leads to a small, and statistically insignificant, net increase in the number of dropouts reported when compared to NCES’s CCD reporting guidelines. The other types of non-conformity lead to a greater and more variable difference than an alternative reporting calendar. It was the recommendation of the study to include “alternative reporting calendar” non-conforming states’ dropout data in NCES files and publications and continue to withhold publication of data from states that follow other variations. On this file, 36 states and outlying areas conform to the NCES definition of a dropout and 13 use an alternative reporting calendar. See appendix C for a list that indicates each state’s conformance status. B. Who is a Dropout The CCD provides an event dropout number. An event dropout number represents the proportion of students dropping out each year. The CCD definition of a dropout is an individual who: 1. Was enrolled in school at some time during the previous school year; 2. Was not enrolled at the beginning of the current school year; 3. Has not graduated from high school or completed a state- or district-approved educational program; and 4. Does not meet any of the following exclusionary conditions: transfer to another public school district, private school, or state- or district-approved education program; temporary absence due to suspension or school-approved illness; or death. For the purpose of this definition: * The school year is the 12-month period of time from the first day of school (operationally set as October 1), with dropouts from the previous summer reported for the year and grade in which they fail to enroll; * Individuals who are not accounted for on October 1 are considered dropouts; * A school completer is an individual who graduated from high school or completed a state-or district-approved educational program upon receipt of formal recognition from school authorities. A state- or district- approved educational program may consist of special education and district or state-sponsored GED preparation. 1 U.S. Department of Education. National Center for Education Statistics. A Recommended Approach to Providing High School Dropout and Completion Rates at the State Level, NCES 2000–305, by Marianne Winglee, David Marker, Allison Henderson, Beth Aronstamm Young, and Lee Hoffman. Washington, DC: 2000. 2 See appendix C for further description of the dropout definition. C. Who is a Completer High school completer counts were taken at the end of the summer of the 2000–01 school year. The diploma recipient counts include students who have received a regular or other diploma, which is a formal document certifying the successful completion of a secondary school program prescribed by the state agency or other appropriate body. The other completer counts include students who have received a certificate of attendance, or other certificate of completion in lieu of a diploma. General Education Development (GED) counts are not included in these counts. III. Methodology Data on the Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File: School Year 2000–01 are provided to NCES by officials in each SEA. Since it is understood that local education staff has already provided information to SEA officials in conjunction with established administrative records systems, it is not the policy of CCD survey staff to contact local personnel for data verification except in unusual circumstances. Certain edits are performed by survey staff and referred to SEA respondents for resolution. It is CCD policy to accept the judgment of the respondent unless there is a clear conflict or unacceptable inconsistency. A. Comments About the Data File Users of the data set need to be aware of certain characteristics of the data file. Undercoverage and Vertical Consistency - Although CCD coverage of traditional public schools and school districts (those schools and districts typed as regular2) is virtually 100 percent, the same cannot be said for publicly funded education outside of the traditional settings and organizations. This dropout file does not include data for agencies reported as closed on the Local Education Agency Universe Survey, 2001–02. Also note that states whose 2000–01 dropout data do not conform to the summer dropouts or the adult education/GED components of NCES’s CCD dropout definition (see appendix C), and states that did not report 2000–01 dropout data, are not included on the file. Imputation Flag Options - Care has been taken to provide a meaningful entry in every cell of this data file. In order to achieve this result, it was necessary in some cases for NCES to assign a value other than that reported - including a blank response - by the state coordinator responding to the CCD surveys. For the total by grade dropout fields there is a companion cell containing a flag indicating whether the figure in the cell was reported by the state or was placed in the cell by NCES using one of several methods. R - As reported by the state A - Adjustment 2 Regular school districts exclude local supervisory unions, regional education service agencies, state and federally operated school districts, and other agencies that do not fall within these groupings. 3 T - Total based on sum of internal or external detail C - Combined with data provided elsewhere by the state On the record layout, the companion cell is identified by the name of the original data cell preceded by an “I.” The documentation explains any action taken by NCES in regard to each variable. A frequency distribution of the values of each imputation flag is attached in appendix B. Please note that year 3, grade 11 dropout counts for AZ and ID have been imputed using grade 11 data for these states from year 2 and year 4. See appendix D for computation instructions. Fields containing imputed data for these states contain a “C” in the corresponding imputation flag field. See appendix D for computation instructions. Missing Value Options - All data elements are either completed or filled with “0,” “M,” or “N.” 0 - There are no occurrences of this data element. A value was expected and measured, but there were 0 (zero) cases found in the category. (For example, a district having no dropouts would report 0.) M - Data are missing. A value was expected and none was measured. (For example, a district that has at least one dropout but cannot measure the number of dropouts would report M.) N - Data are not applicable. A value was neither expected nor measured. (For example, an elementary school district would report N for dropouts.) Completion Base Variables – This file contains two completion base variables. The variable CBS is used to calculate the completion rate on the local education agency level, and SCBS is used to calculate the completion rate at the state level. On CBS, if a district is missing dropout data for any of the four years needed to calculate a completion rate, that district’s CBS is set to “Missing” (M), and a completion rate cannot be calculated for the district. However, when SCBS is created, a district with dropout data for at least one year but fewer than 4 years is assigned an SCBS of “0.” This enables a user to create a state-level completion rate even if some data are missing. NCES suppresses completion rates for such states in its publications. In the 2000–01 file, the following states had an SCBS that included one or more years of missing dropout data: Alaska, District of Columbia, Hawaii, Kentucky, Montana, and Oregon. B. Comments About the Data Fields The Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File: School Year 2000–01 contains the following data items: NCES agency ID; state agency ID; agency name, phone number, mailing address, locale code, status code, submission year flag, low/high grade span offered; dropout counts by grade, race, and gender; dropout rate by grade, race, and gender; 4 enrollment base by grade, race, and gender; Diploma Recipients, Other Completers, and Total Completers by race and gender; Diploma Recipient, Other Completer, and Total Completer Rates by race, gender; Diploma Recipient, Other Completer, and Total Completer Rate Bases by race, gender and dropout definition flag. The dropout “race/ethnicity unknown” category collected previously has been removed from the survey starting with 1997–98 dropouts. Data users should also take note of certain conditions regarding each data item on the file. (LEAID) NCES Education Agency ID - Each record contains a unique NCES agency identification number. The first two characters of this number are the FIPS code. (FIPST) FIPS Codes - A list of the Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) codes appear at the end of section IV. The FIPS code should be used to reference all agencies in a certain state. There are 16 records on this file in which agency’s mailing address state code is different than the FIPS code. (YEAR) Year Reference - The field for this data item displays the year for which all fields on the file were reported. It is important to use this field when comparing dropout data from different files. (STID) State Local Education Agency ID - State Local Education Agency ID contains an “N” for 1 record. (NAME) Name of Education Agency - Each record includes an agency name. NCES reviewed any record filling the 60 characters assigned, and may have adjusted the agency name to improve readability (e.g., applied standard abbreviations). (PHONE) Area Code + Telephone Number - Telephone numbers were reported as “M” for 53 agencies on the dropout file. (MSTREE) Mailing Address - This data item may contain a street address or a PO Box number. Also, some mailing addresses consist solely of a city and state, indicated by an “N” in the street address field. This field contains an “M” or an “N” for 14 records on the dropout file. (MCITY) Mailing City - There are some valid cases in which an agency is located in one city and has a mailing address in another city. Mailing city contains an “M” for 4 records on the dropout file. (MSTATE) Mailing State (PO Abbreviation) - Each record includes a mailing state. There are valid cases in which an agency is located in one state and has a mailing address in another state. There are 16 records in 6 states on this file in which one agency has a mailing state code different than the FIPS code for that state. (MZIP, MZIP4) Mailing Zip Code + 4 - This field contains an “M” for 3 records on the dropout file. The zip + 4 field may be blank if unknown. (LOCALE) District Locale Code - A District Locale Code was added to the file starting with the 2000–01 file. It is an NCES code to indicate the location of the district in relation to populous 5 areas. (See a more detailed description of the District Locale Code methodology at the end of this section). (BOUND) Operational Status Code - All agencies are coded to reflect their status on the Local Education Agency Universe Survey, 2001–02. The valid responses include: 1 - No significant boundary change for this agency since the last report 2 - Agency closed with no effect on another agency’s boundaries, but was open with dropout counts in one of the three previous years. 3 - New agency formed with no effect on another agency’s boundaries 4 - Agency is being added to the report for the first time, but has been in existence 5 - Agency has undergone a significant change in geographical boundaries Please be aware that value “2” on this Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File: School Year 2000–01 differs slightly from the value “2” on the Local Education Agency Universe Survey Data File, 2001–02. The value “2” on the agency file indicates districts that closed on or around October 1 of the CCD agency universe collection year. The value “2” on this Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File: School Year 2000–01, however, indicates districts reported as closed on the 2001–02 agency universe (where 2000–01 dropout data are reported), but reporting dropout counts in any one of the three previous years. These closed records and their dropout counts are included on the dropout and completion file for the purpose of computing state-level completion rates. See appendix D for computation instructions. (SUBMIT) Submission Year Flag - This flag indicates the year in which the directory data items (i.e., name and address information) on this Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File: School Year 2000–01 were reported. Directory items taken from the Local Education Agency Universe Survey Data File for the same year as the dropout data (school year 2000–01) are indicated by a code of 1. Directory items taken from the agency file on which the dropout data were submitted (school year 2001–02) are indicated with a code of 2. Note that new/added districts on the agency submission file (school year 2001–02) are included on the dropout file and will contain a code of 2. (DROPDEF) Dropout Definition Flag - Each record on the file is flagged to indicate whether the dropout data conform to all components of the CCD dropout definition (C), as was the case for 36 states and outlying areas, or if the data conform to all but the Alternative Reporting Calendar component (A), which occurred in 13 states and outlying areas. Dropouts by Grade (7–12), by Race/Ethnicity, and by Gender - For 2000–01 dropout counts, 36 states and outlying areas conformed to the CCD dropout definition, while an additional 13 conformed to all components of the CCD definition except for the alternative reporting calendar component. Data for 3 of the remaining states were suppressed while data were not reported by DC, WA, DoD, and BIA schools. Vermont did not report dropout counts by male\female, therefore the total male\female dropout fields contain “M” (Missing). 6 Computed Dropout Rate Fields - Dropout rate by Grade/Grade Range (7–12) Dropout rate by Race/Ethnicity Dropout rate by Gender The agency dropout rate fields are computed by dividing the number of dropouts by the computed enrollment base. See appendix D for computation instructions. Vermont reported gender unknown dropout counts, but not male\female dropout counts, and therefore, male\female dropout rate fields contain “M” (Missing). Massachusetts, Oregon, Pennsylvania, and Northern Marianas did not report student enrollment data by male/female fields and therefore dropout rates by male/female fields contain “M” (Missing). Idaho and Tennessee did not report student enrollment by race/ethnicity and gender data, and therefore, dropout rate fields by race/ethnicity and gender contain “M” (Missing). Computed Enrollment Base Fields - Enrollment base by Grade/Grade Range (7–12) Enrollment base by Race/Ethnicity Enrollment base by Gender The enrollment base fields are computed by taking the enrollment from the schools in the agencies by grade and prorating the ungraded students among them. See appendix D for computation instructions. Massachusetts, Oregon, Pennsylvania, and Northern Marianas did not report student enrollment by male/female fields, and therefore, student enrollment base fields by male/female contain “M” (Missing). Idaho and Tennessee did not report student enrollment by race/ethnicity and gender therefore student enrollment base fields by race/ethnicity and gender contain “M” (Missing). Diploma Recipients by Race/Ethnicity, and by Gender - Arizona, New Hampshire, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Vermont reported a Diploma Recipient total, but did not report the race/ethnicity and gender detail. Other High School Completers by Race/Ethnicity, and by Gender - Arizona, Arkansas, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Vermont reported an Other High School Total, but did not report the race and gender detail. New Hampshire, Wisconsin, and Wyoming are missing all Other High School Completer counts. Total completers by Race/Ethnicity, and by Gender - The Total Completer fields are computed by summing the corresponding reported Diploma and Other Completer fields. Computed Completion Rate Fields - Diploma Recipients Other High School Completers Total Completers The completion rate fields are computed by dividing the number of completers by the computed completion base. See appendix D for computation instructions. Computed Completion Base Fields - 7 Completion Base by Race/Ethnicity Completion Base by Gender The completion base fields are computed by summing the count of 9th grade dropouts (year 1), 10th grade dropouts (year 2), 11th grade dropouts (year 3), 12th grade dropouts (year 4), and the number of completers. Note that there are two sets of completion base fields: District-level completion base fields and State-level completion base fields. District-level completion base fields are used as the denominator in the calculation of district-level completion rates. State-level completion base values can be aggregated by state, and then used as the denominator in the calculation of state- level completion rates. State-level completion base fields can be identified as those fields that begin with “SCBS” in the field name. District-level completion base fields begin with “CBS.” See appendix D for computation instructions. Arizona and Idaho did not report 11th grade dropouts (year 3), therefore these data were imputed by taking the average of the reported grade 11 (year 2) and grade 11 (year 4). Note that the imputed grade total was set to the sum of the imputed race totals in cases where the sum of the imputed race totals was more than the initial imputed grade total. See appendix D for computation instructions. Records containing these imputed values in the completion base are indicated with the value “C” in the corresponding imputation flag fields. All other non-imputed records contain a “T” in the imputation flag field. District Locale Code methodology Locale Code is a variable that NCES has created for general description, sampling, and other statistical purposes. It is based upon the location of the school buildings of the district, and in some cases may not reflect the entire attendance area or residences of enrolled students. The district locale codes were assigned primarily through the use of school locale codes using the following methods: 1. If 50 percent or more of students attend schools in a single locale code, that code is assigned to the district. 2. Schools are grouped with locale codes 1 and 2 in one group; 3, 4, and 8 in another group; and 5, 6, and 7 in another group. The group that has the largest number of students is determined, and a district locale code is assigned based on the largest number of students in that group. If the number of students between two or more groups is the same, then the largest (i.e., most rural) locale code is assigned. 8 3. Districts with no schools or students were given a locale code of “N.” District Locale Codes 1 = Large City 2 = Mid-size City 3 = Urban Fringe of a Large City 4 = Urban Fringe of a Mid-size City 5 = Large Town 6 = Small Town 7 = Rural, outside Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) 8 = Rural, inside MSA C. Special Considerations of This File Users should be aware of the following special characteristics of the Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File: School Year 2000–01. 1. States that do not conform to NCES dropout reporting standards are excluded from this dropout file. A non-conforming state is one that does not follow the NCES definition in reporting summer dropouts or adult education/GED students (see appendix C for more information on conforming/non-conforming practices). This dropout file includes states that fully conform to the NCES dropout definition and states that use an Alternative Reporting Calendar (ARC), but still conform to all other definitional components. Each record on the dropout file contains a flag indicating whether the data fully conform (C) or use an ARC (A). These flags are contained in the field DROPDEF. 2. It is possible for a district to have dropout counts, but no dropout rates. This occurs when a district does not have any associated schools (from which the enrollment base is derived), or the associated schools do not have enrollment over zero. Enrollment is necessary to calculate the rate. Districts reported as new/added on the agency file that was used to submit dropout data are an example of this type of situation, and can be identified as those records with a code 2 in the SUBMIT field. See appendix D for more information on how dropout rates are computed. 3. There can be situations in which a small district shows a more than 100 percent dropout rate in any given grade/grade range. Since enrollment figures are reported at the school level and dropout counts are reported at the agency level, it is possible that a state may not be able to report enrollment data for all schools in a district. This could create an enrollment figure that is lower than the reported dropout count. Another reason a district could have more dropouts than students enrolled is the method by which CCD counts students who drop out over the summer. If a student finishes a grade and school year but fails to re-enroll in the fall, then the student is counted as a dropout for the grade and district in which he or she fails to enroll in the fall. Therefore, if a student finishes 8th grade in a K–8 district, but then fails to enroll in the 9–12th grade district in the fall, that 9 9–12th grade district would count the student as a dropout even though the 9–12 district would not include the student in its enrollment count. 4. Dropout counts reported outside the grade span for a district have been retained as reported. This can occur when a district’s grade span changed between 2000–01 and 2001–02. 5. Districts with all M or N (Missing or Not Applicable) dropout counts have been retained on the file. The enrollment base for these districts is reported on the file as N (Not Applicable). 6. Districts that were reported as closed on the Local Education Agency Universe Survey, 2001– 02, but were open with dropout counts in any of the previous three years are included on the Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File: School Year 2000–01. The dropout data in these records can be found in the state-level completion base fields, which, when aggregated by state, are used to create state-level completion rates. All other dropout, enrollment, and completer fields contain “N.” These records contain a “2” in the BOUND field. IV. User Guidelines for Processing the Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File: 2000–01 A. File Characteristics Two files are provided for the Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File: School Year 2000–01: The SAS file is called DR001A.SD2 and the flat ASCII file is called DR001A.DAT. The data file names include a two-digit version number. The first two characters of the file name indicate the type of file (DR = Dropout File), the third and fourth characters indicate the school year (00 = 2000–01), the fifth and sixth characters indicate the version number (1 = Public File, A = first version). The record layout (containing field name, field position, field length, field type, and field description) is located in appendix A. The file contains 13,584 records. Please be aware that the following items are not included on the dropout file: • Agencies without dropout counts that were open on the Local Education Agency Universe Survey, School Year 2000–01, but were closed on the Local Education Agency Universe Survey, School Year 2001–02. • States whose 2000–01 dropout data do not conform to the Summer Dropouts or the Adult Education/GED components of the CCD dropout definition. • States that did not report 2000–01 dropout counts. B. Linking This File to Other CCD Files Users can easily link the Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File: School Year 2000–01 to Local Education Agency Universe files, or to other dropout files that NCES will be releasing in the future. The CCD Local Education Agency Universe file contains many useful data items including location address, type code, metropolitan status code, 10 county name, numbers of students and staff, and high school completer data. The variable LEAID is the common link across all agency and school level files and when used will produce a valid dataset. Users should note that enrollment counts on the dropout file may not match the enrollment counts on the Local Education Agency Universe Survey: School Year 2000–01 because enrollment counts are from the school file and ungraded students are prorated into grades (see appendix D for information regarding the enrollment field calculations on the dropout file). There are three file issues between the Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File and the Local Education Agency Universe Survey file that may cause the number of agencies between the two files not to match. 1. Agencies that closed on the Local Education Agency Universe Survey: School Year 2001–02 are not included on the Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File. Closed agencies on the Local Education Agency Universe Survey file contain a value of “2” in the field called BOUND. This BOUND value on the Local Education Agency Universe Survey file can be used to filter out the closed agencies so that the number of agencies on both files is similar. 2. Since dropout and completer data are reported on the Local Education Agency Universe Survey for the following year (i.e., 2000–01 school year dropouts and completers are reported on the 2001–02 Local Education Agency Universe Survey), the Local Education Agency Universe Survey: School Year 2001–02 includes new/added agencies for which 2000–01 dropout data are reported even though the agencies do not appear on the Local Education Agency Universe Survey: School Year 2000–01 file. When linking the Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File: School Year 2000–01 to the Local Education Agency Universe Survey: School Year 2000–01 file, these new/added agencies will not have a matching record on the Local Education Agency Universe Survey: School Year 2000–01 file. These new/added agencies can be identified on the dropout file as those records containing a code “2” in the SUBMIT field. 3. Agencies reported as closed on the Local Education Agency Universe Survey: School Year 2001–02 file that were open with dropout counts in any of the previous three years were included on the Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File: School Year 2000–01. These records contain the code “2” in the BOUND field on the Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File: School Year 2000–01, which can be used to filter out those records when matching to other CCD files. 11 State FIPS Codes and Abbreviations Used in CCD Datasets STATE NAME FIPS 3 STABBREV 4 STATE NAME FIPS 3 STABBREV 4 Alabama 01 AL Alaska 02 AK Arizona 04 AZ Arkansas 05 AR California6 06 CA Colorado6 08 CO Connecticut 09 CT Delaware 10 DE District of Columbia6 11 DC Florida 12 FL Georgia 13 GA Hawaii 15 HI Idaho 16 ID Illinois 17 IL Indiana6 18 IN Iowa 19 IA Kansas 20 KS Kentucky 21 KY Louisiana 22 LA Maine 23 ME Maryland 24 MD Massachusetts 25 MA Michigan6 26 MI Minnesota 27 MN Mississippi 28 MS Missouri 29 MO Montana 30 MT Nebraska 31 NE Nevada 32 NV New Hampshire 33 NH New Jersey 34 NJ New Mexico 35 NM New York 36 NY North Carolina 37 NC North Dakota 38 ND Ohio 39 OH Oklahoma 40 OK Oregon 41 OR Pennsylvania 42 PA Rhode Island 44 RI South Carolina 45 SC South Dakota 46 SD Tennessee 47 TN Texas 48 TX Utah 49 UT Vermont 50 VT Virginia 51 VA Washington6 53 WA West Virginia 54 WV Wisconsin 55 WI Wyoming 56 WY Department of Defense Dependents Schools (overseas)5,6 58 DO Department of Defense Dependents Schools (domestic)5,6 61 DD Bureau of Indian Affairs5,6 59 BI OUTLYING AREAS American Samoa 60 AS Guam 66 GU Northern Marianas 69 MP Puerto Rico 72 PR Virgin Islands 78 VI 3Federal Information Processing STD Codes (01–78). 4Postal State Abbreviation Codes. 5Not official U.S. FIPS Code.

There are three main ways in which a state might differ from the CCD definition (for a more detailed description of each component see later in this appendix): Alternative Reporting Calendar Summer Dropouts Adult Education/GED Dropout data that conform to all components of the CCD definition are included in this file as reported by the state. Please note that starting with this file, states that do not conform to CCD’s reporting calendar year (but conform to all other components) are on the file. The Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File: School Year 2000–01 contains a field (DROPDEF) to identify dropout data that fully conform to the CCD definition (C), and dropout data based on an Alternative Reporting Calendar, but conform to the other two components (A). States that do not conform to the Summer Dropouts and/or the Adult Education/GED components are suppressed from the publication file. The table below identifies the each state’s conformance status. 2000–01 Dropout Conformance (for dropouts reported on 2001–02 CCD) State Conforms (C) Alternative Reporting Calendar (A) Does not conform Did not report any dropout data Alabama A Alaska A Arizona A Arkansas C California X Colorado X Connecticut C Delaware C District of Columbia X Florida A Georgia C Hawaii A Idaho C Illinois A Indiana X Iowa C Kansas C Kentucky C Louisiana C Maine C Maryland A Massachusetts C Michigan X Minnesota C Mississippi C Missouri C Montana C Nebraska C Nevada C New Hampshire C C-1 APPENDIX C – Dropout Reporting Practices and Guidelines Common Core of Data, Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File: School Year 2000–01 State Conforms (C) Alternative Reporting Calendar (A) Does not conform Did not report any dropout data New Jersey A New Mexico C New York A North Carolina C North Dakota C Ohio x Oklahoma A Oregon C Pennsylvania C Rhode Island C South Carolina C South Dakota C Tennessee A Texas C Utah C Vermont A Virginia C Washington X West Virginia C Wisconsin C Wyoming C DOD, BIA and Outlying Areas DoDS Overseas X DoDS Domestic X Bureau of Indian Affairs X American Samoa C Guam C Northern Marianas C Puerto Rico A Virgin Islands C TOTAL 36 13 5 5 Please be aware that due to definitional clarification work between NCES and the states, some states’ conformance status may not match their conformance status indicated on previous publications. C-2 APPENDIX C – Dropout Reporting Practices and Guidelines Common Core of Data, Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File: School Year 2000–01 STATE REPORTING INSTRUCTIONS These are the instructions for reporting dropouts for the National Center for Education Statistics on the Common Core of Data (CCD) survey. These instructions ensure that the reported dropout data are comparable across all states’ school districts. The dropout count is reported at the school district level on the CCD Local Education Agency Universe Survey. I. Dropout Definition The CCD dropout definition is based on a “snapshot” count of students at the beginning of the school year: A dropout is an individual who: 1. was enrolled in school at some time during the previous school year1 and was not enrolled on October 1 of the current school year; or 2. was not enrolled on October 1 of the previous school year although expected to be in membership (i.e., was not reported as a dropout the year before); and 3. has not graduated from high school or completed a state- or district-approved educational program and 4. does not meet any of the following exclusionary conditions: i. transfer to another public school district, private school, or state- or district-approved education program; ii. temporary school-recognized absence due to suspension or illness, or iii. death. For purposes of applying this dropout definition, the following definitions also apply: A. School year is the 12-month period beginning on October 1, 2000 and ending September 30, 2001. Thus, it includes the summer following the regular school year. B. School completer is an individual who has graduated from high school or completed some other education program that is approved by the state or local education agency. C. State- or district-approved program is one that leads to the receipt of formal recognition of completion from school authorities. It may include special education programs, home-based instruction, and programs administered by a secondary education agency (but not adult or postsecondary) leading to a GED-based diploma or some other certification differing from the regular diploma. Programs recognized as legitimate by the state are considered approved even if the public education system does not directly administer them; home schooling and charter schools may be examples of such programs. D. Transfer to another school or program may be confirmed by a method selected by the state or school district. A transcript request, withdrawal notice signed by a parent that includes assurances the student will be enrolled elsewhere, and the like are acceptable. States are discouraged from accepting hearsay reports or unsubstantiated statements of intent from departing students. E. Race/ethnicity of dropouts currently is reported using the pre-1997 standards set by the Office of Management and Budget. The categories approved for the CCD through the 2001–02 school year are American Indian/Alaskan native; Asian/Pacific Islander; Hispanic; Black, not Hispanic; White, not Hispanic. Definitions are included in the CCD Instructions Manual. F. Gender of dropouts is to be reported as male or female. G. Grade classifications, grades 7 through 12, are used to report dropouts, not the student’s age. H. Ungraded dropouts should be allocated to the grade most appropriate for their age. 1 A student who was enrolled in September, 2000; dropped out of school in February, 2001; and was not enrolled in school on October 1, 2001 would be reported as a 2000–01 dropout (previous year) on the 2001–02 CCD (current year). C-3 APPENDIX C – Dropout Reporting Practices and Guidelines Common Core of Data, Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File: School Year 2000–01 II. Other Basic Guidelines The CCD reports an event dropout count—the number of students who leave school during a defined period of time, in this case, a calendar year. The dropout count is taken on October 1, 2000, or the school day closest to this date, in order to agree with the CCD membership count that is taken on the same day. The defining decision is whether a student is a dropout on October 1, 2000. A student who missed much of the previous school year (1999–2000) but who is in membership on October 1, 2000 is not a dropout, while a student who is not in membership on October 1, 2000 but who returns later in that school year is a dropout (for the previous year, 1999–2000). CCD publications compute a dropout rate by dividing the number of dropouts for a year by the membership count taken at the beginning of that year. More guidelines: 1. “Summer dropouts” are students who were not dropouts at the close of the previous school year (1999–2000) but who fail to enroll by October 1, 2000. Summer dropouts are reported as dropouts for the grade and school year for which they fail to report. For example, a student who completes the 10th grade in 1999–2000 but who is not re-enrolled on October 1, 2000 is reported as a 2000–01 dropout for 11th grade. 2. Students who enroll in adult education programs are counted as dropouts unless the elementary/secondary school system remains responsible for the student. The intent of this guideline is to ensure that students who do not complete a program but for whom the district no longer takes responsibility are counted as dropouts. i. Transferring to an alternative education setting, if it is part of the elementary/secondary education system, is not considered dropping out. For example, students enrolled in elementary/secondary education in prisons, hospitals, ‘store front’ locations or other nontraditional locations are not dropouts if the program is part of the elementary/secondary system. This means that a student who enrolls in a school-operated program for high-risk students is not a dropout, even if the program is preparing the student to take the GED examination. ii. A student who leaves an elementary/secondary school and enrolls in adult education is a dropout. The exception to this guideline is when the public school system monitors the student’s enrollment and reports the student as a dropout if the student drops out of the adult program. An example of this would be a cooperative arrangement between a public school district and a local technical institute that provides GED preparation for students referred directly by the district. The district counts as dropouts the referred students who did not complete the GED study program. iii. Students who drop out during the 1999–2000 school year but who have obtained a completion credential, such as a GED-based diploma or certificate of completion, on October 1, 2000 are not reported as dropouts. 3. An early college admissions student, one who transfers to a postsecondary program leading to a baccalaureate or associate’s degree, is not a dropout. 4. Students who fail to meet some graduation requirements, and who leave school without a diploma or other credential, are dropouts even if they have completed the 12th grade. 5. Students who leave the United States are not considered to be dropouts even if the school district cannot document the student’s subsequent enrollment in school. 6. Students who drop out during the 2000–01 school year but are re-enrolled on October 1, 2001 are not reported as dropouts. 7. Students who drop out multiple times in a school year are reported only once for a single school year. However, students who drop out in more than one year are reported as dropouts for each year in which they are not in membership on October 1. C-4 APPENDIX C – Dropout Reporting Practices and Guidelines Common Core of Data, Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File: School Year 2000–01 8. Underage dropouts, those who leave school when they are still too young to do so legally, should be reported on the CCD if they drop out of any of grades 7 through 12. These dropouts should be reported even if the state or district considers them “truants” rather than dropouts. Summary of School Leaver Status A Student Who: Dropout? 1.

Please answer the three questions below, sign this verification, and return it to the Census Bureau fax number 1-866-394-0138. If you have any questions, contact Beth Young (NCES) at beth_young@ed.gov or Julia Naum (Census) at julia.naum@census.gov Thank you for your information. 1. Alternative Reporting Calendar: The CCD dropout count is based on an October-September school year in which a student's dropout status is determined at the beginning of the year. Some states follow a July-June calendar in which a student's dropout status is determined at the end of the school year. Under the CCD procedure, a student enrolled but not completing 2000–01 who returns after October 1, 2001 is reported as a 2000–01 dropout, while a student enrolled but not completing 2000–01 who is enrolled on October 1, 2001 would not be a dropout. Note that data not conforming with this condition will be published, with an explanation, by NCES. Please indicate if your dropout report: _____ conforms with CCD _____ does not conform with the CCD 2. Summer Dropouts: Students who complete one school year but fail to enroll in the next school year should be counted as dropouts from the school year and grade for which they failed to return. For example, a student completing grade 10 in 1999–2000 who does not enroll the next year would be reported as a grade 11 dropout for 2000–01. Please indicate if your dropout report: _____ conforms with CCD _____ does not conform with CCD 3. Adult Education/GED: Students who leave high school to enroll in adult education GED preparation should be reported as dropouts. They should not be counted as dropouts if the enroll in a secondary school GED program, or if the district tracks programs in adult education GED programs and reports the students as dropouts should they fail to complete the GED program. Also, students who have received a high school equivalency by October 1 are not dropouts regardless of where they prepared for the test.

Enrollment is not reported by grade at the agency level; enrollment on the dropout file is aggregated to the agency level from the Public Elementary and Secondary School Universe file.2 2. Ungraded enrollment within each agency is redistributed across other grades in proportion to the graded enrollment.3 a. Subtract the ungraded enrollment from the total enrollment to get the total graded enrollment. b. Compute the enrollment for each grade, 7–12, as a percentage of the total graded enrollment. c. Increment the enrollment for each grade, 7–12, by its corresponding proportion of the ungraded enrollment (i.e., the ungraded enrollment multiplied by the percentage computed in step b). 3. Enrollment totals are computed for grade-range fields 7–12 and 9–12. The grade-range is set to M (Missing) if all of the individual grades are M (Missing), otherwise, the grade-range is set to the sum of the enrollment counts in each grade. 4. If a district reported all M or N (Missing or Not Applicable) dropouts, that district's enrollment base fields were set to N (Not Applicable). 1 The rate is set to N (Not Applicable) if the corresponding enrollment (EBS) value is 0 (zero). The rate is set to M (Missing) if the number of dropouts or the enrollment is M. The rate is set to N (Not applicable), if the number of dropouts or the enrollment is N. 2 Missing enrollment data in grade, race, or gender categories are treated as zero when calculating enrollment base fields. Enrollment base fields are set to N (Not Applicable) when all detail components are N. Enrollment base fields are set to M (Missing) when all detail components are M or a combination of M and N. 3 Starting with the 2000–01 dropout file, the proportion is based on the race and gender totals that are summed up from the individual race and gender detail fields. D-1 APPENDIX D - Computation Instructions Common Core of Data, Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File: School Year 2000–01 5. If a district had no associated schools, that district’s enrollment base fields were set to N (Not Applicable). COMPUTATION OF DROPOUT FIELDS 1. Total 9–12 dropouts by race is calculated by summing the reported male, female, and gender unknown fields, in grades 9–12, for a particular race category. Total 9–12 dropouts by gender is calculated by summing the 5 reported race fields, in grades 9–12, for a particular gender category. Missing dropout data are treated as zero when calculating these fields. Total dropouts by race and gender is set to N (Not Applicable) when all detail components are N. Total dropouts by race and gender are set to M (Missing) when all detail components are M or a combination of M and N. 2. Total dropouts are computed for grade-range fields 7–12 and 9–12. The grade-range is set to M (Missing) if all of the individual grades are M (Missing), otherwise the grade-range is set to the sum of the dropout counts in each grade. COMPUTATION OF HIGH SCHOOL FOUR-YEAR COMPLETION RATE FIELDS TOTCOMt TCOMRt = TOTCOMt + DP12t + DP11(t-1) + DP10(t-2) + DP9(t-3) Where TCOMRt = The high school four-year completion rate for year t (e.g., 2000)4 TOTCOMt = The number of completers for the year t (e.g., 2000) DP12t = The number of dropouts for grade 12 at year t (e.g., 2000) DP11(t-1) = The number of dropouts for grade 11 in the prior year (t -1) (e.g., 1999) DP10(t-2) = The number of dropouts for grade 10 in the year (t -2) (e.g., 1998) DP9(t-3) = The number of dropouts for grade 9 in the year (t -3) (e.g., 1997) 4 The rate is set to N (Not Applicable) if the entire denominator is 0 (zero). The rate is set to M (Missing) if the number of Completers or any of the dropout counts by grade is M (Missing). If no completer or dropout totals are missing, the rate is set to N (Not applicable), if the number of Completers or the denominator total is N (Not applicable). D-2 APPENDIX D - Computation Instructions Common Core of Data, Local Education Agency Universe Survey Dropout and Completion Data File: School Year 2000–01 COMPUTATION OF COMPLETION RATE BASE FIELDS 1. The total Completion Rate Base (denominator) value is calculated by summing the values of each of the five denominator components. The total Completion Rate Base by race is calculated by summing the reported male, female, and gender unknown fields for the race category in each of the 5 denominator components. The total Completion Rate Base by gender is calculated by summing the reported race fields for the gender category, in each of the five denominator components. 2. The total Completion Rate Base (denominator) value is set to N (Not applicable) if the Total Completer value is Not Applicable (e.g. if a district does not serve grade 12 students). 3. The total district-level Completion Rate Base (denominator) field is set to M (Missing) if any of the denominator components is M. 4. The total state-level Completion Rate Base (denominator) field treats M (Missing) values in the denominator components as 0 (zero). COMPUTATION OF IMPUTED YEAR 3, GRADE 11 DROPOUT DATA TOTD11Y2 + TOTD11 Y4 TOTD11 Y3 = 2 Where TOTD11 Y3 = Imputed year 3 count of Grade 11 dropouts5 TOTD11 Y2 = Year 2 count of Grade 11 dropouts TOTD11 Y4 = Year 4 count of Grade 11 dropouts 1. Grade 11, year 3 data was imputed for districts in Arizona and Idaho by taking the average of the reported grade 11 (year 2) and grade 11 (year 4). If year 2 or year 4 = M (Missing), imputed year 3 was set to M; otherwise, if year 2 or year 4 = N (Not applicable), the imputed year 3 was set to N. 2. Total grade 11 dropouts (Y2, Y4) by race is calculated by summing the reported male, female, and gender unknown fields, in grade 11 (Y2, Y4), for a particular race category. Total grade 11 dropouts (Y2, Y4) by gender is calculated by summing the 5 reported race fields, in grades 11 (Y2, Y4), for a particular gender category. Missing dropout data are treated as zero when calculating these fields. Total dropouts by race and gender is set to N (Not Applicable) when all detail components are N. Total dropouts by race and gender are set to M (Missing) when all detail components are M or a combination of M and N. 5 Note that if the sum of the imputed race totals was greater than the imputed grade 11 total, the imputed grade 11 total was set to the sum of the imputed race totals.
