Pursuant to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, Section 618, Public Education Agencies (PEAs), including secure care facilities, must report exit and discipline information for students with disabilities in addition to SPED participation.
The Arizona Department of Education requires PEAs to submit this data through Arizona Education Data Standards (AzEDS). Specifically, PEAs must submit:
- Exit data for students with disabilities who are ages 14–21
- Students who were in special education at the start of the reporting period and were not in special education at the end of the reporting period
- Discipline data for incidents that resulted in the removal of the student with a disability from their regular educational environment into AzEDS through their Student Information System (SIS). For SIS information, please refer to the attached memo.
Applicable roles for AzEDS and the SEDD application must be requested from your local ADEConnect Entity Administrator:
- AzEDS Data Coordinator: Base Reports
- AzEDS Data Coordinator: Discipline Reports
- AzEDS Data Coordinator: SPED Reports
- ESS Discipline Data: Edit
- SEDD LEA User
- SEDD LEA Signer
The exit and discipline data reported in AzEDS for federal reporting purposes is displayed in the Special Education Data Dashboard (SEDD) for PEA review and certification. Please see the Important Dates for the SEDD timeline. Additionally, the SEDD Manual contains guidance on how to review and certify your federally reported SPED data. Note that this manual is for all PEAs and includes discipline definitions outlined specifically for secure care facilities.
