Subject: Fall 2 Deadline Reminder: LEAs Should Ensure ZERO Fatal Errors by February 28
Dear Local Educational Agency (LEA) Representatives,
This is a reminder that the certification deadline for the 2024–25 CALPADS Fall 2 Submission is March 21, 2025 at 11:59 p.m.
LEAs are also reminded that there is no amendment window for the Fall 2 Data Submission.
It is recommended that LEAs have zero fatal errors by February 28th so there is time for staff to review and approve their Fall 2 submission by the March 21, 2025 deadline.
This February 28th milestone date is noted on the CDE CALPADS Calendar web page at https://www.cde.ca.gov/ds/sp/cl/rptcalendar.asp, and was noted in the CALPADS Digest emailed on February 7.
Sincerely,
The CALPADS Team

9/20/2024 Native Language Update:
'Sign language' [sgn], has been replaced by 'American Sign Language' with new code of [ase] and the original [sgn] code now represents 'Other Sign Language' as it's new label.
This way the majority of Sign Language students speaking American Sign Language already had their language udpated.
Then for the studnets who are not speaking American Sign Language, their native language can be updated to Other Sign Language as appropriate if it has not already been updated by your districts SIS integration with SIRAS.
