PREFACEThis document provides technical instructions for building files that can be submitted through the Education Data Exchange Network (EDEN). This document is used in coordination with the EDFacts Workbook, EDFacts Business Rules Guide and the EDEN Submission System User Guide.

EDEN is a centralized, coordinated repository of state reported, K through 12, educational data residing at the U.S. Department of Education. The EDEN Submission System is an electronic system that facilitates the efficient and timely transmission of data from SEAs to the U.S. Department of Education.

1.0PURPOSEThis document contains instructions for building fixed and delimited files to submit EDFacts Data Group: AMO Reading/Language Arts Status Table, DG# 552. The definition for this data group is in the row “Table Name” in Table 4.2–1.

New! The data collected using this file specification are used to monitor and report performance on programs and activities supported by the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, as amended.   

The term “proficiency target status” means whether the annual measurable objective was achieved. The phrases “proficiency target” and “annual measurable objective (AMO)” are used interchangeably in this document.

A separate document contains the XML file formats. General guidance for constructing all file types may be found in the EDFacts Workbook.

1.1 CHANGES FROM THE SY 2007-08 FILE SPECIFICATIONS

There have been changes to this file specification that resulted in changes to the fixed format (.txt) record layout.

Added category Major Racial Ethnic Group

1.2 REQUIREMENTS FOR SUBMITTING THIS DATA GROUP

New! This section contains two tables that summarize the reporting requirements. The first table contains the reporting period, the education units included or excluded, the type of count, and zero count reporting. The second table contains the required categories and applicable totals.

New! Table 1.2-1 AMO Reading/Language Arts Status, Core Reporting RequirementsSEA LEA School

Reporting Period School year

The status in this file can be viewed as a final result for the school year. For example, the status for SY 2008-09 is based on assessments administered during SY 2008-09.

2.0GUIDANCE FOR SUBMITTING THIS FILEThis file specification is used to collect the AMO Reading/Language Arts Status.

See below for additional guidance concerning this file:

Revised! What records are required?Each school or district will have records for each category set and for all students. A school or district does not have to have records for each of the permitted values of the category major racial and ethnic group.

Category set or all students Number of records per school or districtCategory set A – major racial ethnic group One or moreCategory set B – LEP status (only) OneCategory set C – disability status (only) OneCategory set D – economically disadvantaged status OneAll students One

Each record in the file indicates the status of the AMO Reading/Language Arts Status for a specific student subgroup or “all students”. For example, if a school met the Reading/Language Arts Proficiency Target for economically disadvantaged students, as outlined in the state’s accountability workbook, the record would indicate “ECODIS” in the field for Economically Disadvantaged Status and “MET” in the field for “Status.” When reporting the indicator for “all students,” only the field “Status” is used. “All students” is the result of whether the “all students” group met the AMO. It is not the overall designation for the school or district.

Revised! What are the permitted values for status?For any school or district, the Reading/Language Arts AMO has one of the following statuses for the various subgroups and for all students:

MET: The school or district met the Reading/Language Arts AMO for the specific student subgroups or for all students, as outlined in the state’s consolidated accountability workbook.

SAFEHARBOR: The school or district met the Reading/Language Arts AMO for the specific student subgroup or for all students through safe harbor, as outlined in the state’s consolidated accountability workbook.

GROWTH: The school or district met the Reading/Language Arts AMO for the specific student subgroups or for all students through the state’s participation in the Department’s Growth Model Pilot Program (see: www.ed.gov/admins/lead/growthmodel/index.html)..

NOTMET: The school or district did not meet the Reading/Language Arts AMO for the specific student subgroup or for all students.

TOOFEW: The number of students in the specific student subgroup or in all students enrolled for a full academic year, as defined by the state, was less than

U.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION N111 – AMO Reading/Language Arts StatusFile Specifications v5.0

the state’s minimum group size to validly and reliably calculate whether the subgroup or all students met the AMO for Reading/Language Arts.

NOSTUDENTS: There were no students in the subgroup. If a school or district has no students in a specific subgroup, the status should be reported as "NOSTUDENTS." (If no students are in the school or district, the school or district should not be included in this file.)

MISSING: The Reading/Language Arts AMO status for a specific school or district is not available at the time the file is prepared.

New! Why is “NA – Not applicable” a permitted value?Districts that are not required to meet the Mathematics AMO due to exceptional circumstances should be left out of the file. However, if an SEA decides to include them in the file they should be reported as “NA – Not applicable.” This status is not used in conjunction with the other statuses. If a subgroup of students is not present in a district or school, the status is reported as “NOSTUDENTS.”

New! What are the permitted values for the category major racial and ethnic group?The permitted values are:

White (not Hispanic) / Caucasian Black (not Hispanic) / African American Hispanic / Latino – use if includes Puerto Ricans Hispanic (not Puerto Rican) Puerto Rican Asian – Use if doesn’t include Pacific Islanders Asian / Pacific Islander American Indian / Alaska Native / Native American Multicultural / Multiethnic / Multiracial / Other Filipino Native Hawaiian / Other Pacific Islander / Pacific Islander

New! Which permitted values should be used for the category major racial and ethnic?States should use whichever permitted values best align with the major racial ethnic subgroups used to determine adequate yearly progress (AYP) as outlined in their State Accountability Plan.

Do any other file specifications collect related data?Under NCLB, states determine the Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) status of each school and district. Each school and district receives one overall AYP designation, collected in N/X103 Data Group DG32. This determination is based on the evaluation of each subgroup within a school or district. The matrix below illustrates the relationship between AYP status and the indicators used to calculate it and EDFacts data groups and files.

3.0FILE NAMING CONVENTIONBeing able to readily identify any particular file transmission is an important consideration for users of the EDEN Data Submission System. Being able to identify a particular file can greatly facilitate any technical assistance that may be requested by the state. A maximum of 25 characters (including the file extension) is allowed for the file name. The following is the naming convention for AMO Reading/Language Arts Status file submissions:

sslevRLAPFTGSTvvvvvvv.ext

Where:ss = Two–character USPS State Abbreviation for the submitting

SEA.lev = Three–character abbreviation for the level submitted. Use:

LEA for a Local Education Agency AMO Reading/Language Arts Status submissionSCH for a School AMO Reading/Language Arts Status submission

Filename = RLAPFTGST (no more than nine characters).vvvvvvv = Up to seven–character alphanumeric string designated by the

SEA to uniquely identify the individual submission (e.g., ver0001, v010803).

.ext = Three–character file extension identifying the file format as follows:

.txt – fixed format

.csv – comma–delimited format

.tab – tab–delimited format

3.1 POPULATION STATUS

The “Pop” column in the header and data records is coded as follows:

M – Mandatory, this field must always be populated A – This field is populated in accordance with table 1.2–2 O – Optional, data in this field is optional
