On Februrary 14, 2023, AzEDS IT and vendors met to discuss updates for FYs 2023 and 2024. An emphasis was placed on the Program Evaluation Model which is the structure being used to collect the 21st Century Community Learning Center Teacher Survey data and the Firearms Data Collection. The Use Case for the 9.0 API was updated on ADE's website to include these items. Sample JSONs are also attached to this post respective to the 21st CCLC Teacher Survey data. The meeting may be viewed at https://youtu.be/m9odvhFEM4Q.

21st CCLC recently updated their guidance for Summer Withdrawals. LEAs and Vendors are requested to work together to provide 21st CCLC Program data for students that participate after the last day of school in the following school year. This guidance is due to the removal of said data when students have a summer withdrawal. The 21st CCLC data that belongs to a student between the last instructional day of one year and the first instructional day of the next year should be maintained in the upcoming school year data. Please see the updated guidance in FAQ item 20 at this link.

AzEDS has updated rules -40004 and -40029 to include additional scenarios. For guidance on these rule amendments, please refer to the notification sent by Exceptional Student Services here. The SPED74 SPED Exit Report was updated to include additional Integrity rule categories and these changes are reflected in the header of the report.

Integrity rules -10141 through -10146 have been updated in the Integrity Rules Reference Sheet located here. These rules are currently set as warnings. Rules -10141 through -10144 will become errors later in FY2023 before the ADM Calculation Engine (ACE) is updated for CTED ADM. Rules -10145 and -10146 will remain as warnings moving forward. You may also navigate to the Integrity Rules Reference sheets by expanding  AzEDS in the menu bar and selecting Reference.

The rules are located in 10XXX and 20XXX - Average Daily Membership (ADM) Rules Version 12. If the version appears to be prior to V12, then it may require the user to clear the cache from the web browser.
