The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the collection and reporting of data on EDE, beginning in SY 2019-20. The Department urges abundant caution when using the data and recommends reviewing the relevant data notes prior to use or interpretation. This includes data on state assessments, graduation rates, and chronic absenteeism.

2022-2023 WISCONSIN 170 754 Status Year to Year Comparison: The number of LEAs with subgrants changed by a potentially significant amount between the prior year and the current year. The 6 Compliance grant LEAs were NOT included in 21-22 because they did NOT receive EHCY funds (only ARP-HCY). WDPI gave them EHCY funds in 22-23. The LEAs would be Appleton, Black River Falls, Delavan-Darien, Menasha, Shawano and Walworth J1.
2022-2023 CALIFORNIA 118 655 Participation The sums of Homeless Students Enrolled Unaccompanied Youth and Unaccompanied Youth by Primary Nighttime Residence were not equal. The California Department of Education (CDE) acknowledges this difference in total counts at the SEA level. A few unaccompanied youth reported to the CDE did not include a primary nighttime residence.
2022-2023 COLORADO 118, 178 655 Participation The count of Homeless Students Enrolled in one or more of grades 3-8 was less than the sum of students reported as homeless in Academic Achievement in Reading/Language Arts in that grade. This applies to 19 LEAs. Homeless status is self-reported by the districts in two separate collections, assessment collections & student end of year and have different reporting time periods. District found an issue with their student information system impacting the homeless data field during the 2022-2023 end of year collection that is responsible for the difference between the two collections. Unfortunately, the issue was not identified until after the 2022-2023 student end of year collection was closed. The district has rectified this situation for the 2023-2024 reporting year. We are continuing to increase training, resources, and communication to help districts accurately report this information. We are also investigating ways to increase data checks across state collections.

2022-2023 WISCONSIN 118, 195 814, 655 Participation The sum of homeless enrolled students in the school data group in the Chronic Absenteeism file aggregated to the LEA level was greater than zero but a count of greater than zero was not reported for that LEA in the Homeless Students Enrolled file. This applies to 21 LEAs. The Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction considers a student experiencing homelessness to have that status in the database for the entire year, even if they were able to find housing later in the year. Thus when we report Chronic Absenteeism data, the students may appear as chronically absent in a different district or school than where they were identified as experiencing homelessness.

2022-2023 WYOMING 178 876, 877 Performance Please see state comment for additional information regarding the state’s data submission All subgroups - This past year, the state of Wyoming purchased a school lunch software that improved our Direct Cert matching. We now perform the matching at the state level rather than requiring districts to do it. We also negotiated a contract with the Wyoming Department of Health and are including Medicaid data. These two factors significantly increased our school lunch counts.
2022-2023 NEW MEXICO 121SUB, 178 634SUB, 876 Performance The sum of Migratory Children Eligible - 12 Months in one or more grades 3-8 was less than the sum of children reported as migratory in Academic Achievement in Reading/Language Arts in that grade. Race/ethnicity was not collected for some families, and some families chose not to disclose race/ethnicity.
2022-2023 MASSACHUSETTS 178 876, 877 Performance Please see state comment for additional information regarding the state’s data submission Homeless counts have increased by more than the 10% threshold. This is due to the statewide trend of increased homeless student enrollment, so this increase in the assessed homeless student count is to be expected.
