I have aggregate reports that I need to send off for other state and federal programs. How do I aggregate the data according to the new categories?
Aggregation will not be an issue with CALPADS reporting, because LEAs will report student level data to CALPADS. LEAs may have specialized programs, however, where they may be required to submit aggregate reports that include student or staff demographic data. Race and ethnicity data should be aggregated into the following seven categories for federal education program reporting: • Hispanic/Latino of any race; Only for individuals who are non-Hispanic/Latino: • American Indian or Alaska Native, • Asian, • Black or African American, • Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander, • White For any individuals who identify themselves as not Hispanic and identify themselves by more than one race, they should be reported as: • Two or more races Please contact your CDE program representative to confirm specific state program reporting instructions.
