CALPADS
California Longitudinal Pupil Achievement Data System (CALPADS) is the longitudinal data system used to maintain individual-level data including student demographics, course data, discipline, assessments, staff assignments, and other data for state and federal reporting.
SDCOE's CALPADS Connections is San Diego's network of school districts, charter schools, SELPAs and County Office of Education working together to leverage knowledge and support each other with CALPADS reporting.

Each year, CALPADS requires data submissions during three reporting periods: Fall 1, Fall 2, and EOY.
