Schools should review the Fall 1 data posted in the CDE’s CALPADS system to review its accuracy. Fall 1 Amendment window critical data is reported in Fall 1, which is used to calculate unduplicated counts for the purpose of LCFF concentration and supplemental grant funding. The “window” for schools to review this data begins this date. Fall 1 Amendment Window is between December 16, 2023 and January 2, 2024.

Actions to be taken: Review and resolve data errors during Fall 1 Amendment Window between December 14, 2023 to January 24, 2025

The amendment window provides time for LEAs to review and resolve any remaining fatal data errors including: - Revising Uncertificated Revision with SELPA; - Verifying that all students who are eligible to be classified as unduplicated—free and reduced-price meal (FRPM), English Learner (EL), or Foster Youth)—are appropriately identified. Use this extension to ensure unduplicated pupil counts are as accurate as possible as they are the drivers of schools' LCFF Supplemental and Concentration Grant revenues and are based on a three-year rolling average—so an error in data potentially has an effect over multiple years.
