What’s New with Special Education Data?
(…and Reminders for what is not new!)
We still have…• The Office of Special Education (OSEP) Tables
– Table 1 – Child Count (last Fri. October)– Table 2 – Special Education Personnel (December)– Table 3 – Environments (last Friday in October)– Table 4 – Exits (Final pull – Oct 1 for 08/09)– Table 5 – Discipline (Final pull – Oct 1 for 08/09)– Table 6 – Academic achievement (Feb 1 – Annual Report)– Table 7 – Due Process (DPA completes – Nov. 1)And now we also have:
– Table 8 - Early Intervention (Coming Attraction)
We have a better way to report!!• NASIS!!• Steps:
– Find student (left panel)– Click on most recent enrollment– Find the BIE enrollment section– Enter special education status
• 1 if not now or ever special education• 2 if referred – must complete assessment within 60 days of permission• 3 receiving services• 4 exited from services – complete reason and date
– Enter primary disability– Enter special education setting
More NASIS
• Make sure all other information is correct– Discipline with incidences, resolutions and dates
as needed– Complete Exit data– Homeless checked if appropriate– Limited English Proficiency data– Graduation data if appropriate– All other basic data is correct– For Spring 2010 graduates data will be from NASIS
NEW - Early Intervention
• On the BIE enrollment tab– Put a check in the Intervening Services box if– You are using special education dollars to provide
services– Table 8 will require reporting this information
NEW – High Quality Teachers
• Enter High Quality Teacher (HQT) information into NASIS
• Will be found under census• School must keep paper record of
qualifications• Teacher must meet the HQT requirements for
teaching the class to which they are assigned
Forms in NASIS
• IEP forms now on NASIS – yea!!!• Please complete the forms as indicated• Forms are data entry points• Work with system administration to make sure
right people have right level of access• Remember confidentiality – few people will
need this access
Right Now…
Discipline• ‘618’ regulations• Remove to an
Interim Alternative Education Setting
• Suspensions / expulsions
• By gender and ethnicity
Exits• No longer receives services• Transferred – proof ( end grade a school)• Dropped out• Graduated• Certificate• Maximum age• Died
Why do we do all this?

Think About• Where are students served at your school• What impact would the total number have on
the year to year change in %• Things to consider when determining service
LRE– Individual needs– Limiting amount of time away from peers but also
meeting special education needs– How can time in regular classroom be increased
without denying services

Graduation Rate..Why Different?
• BIE moved to the Cohort concept all states must use.• Last year - first attempt at verifying the data• Next data year data will be taken from NASIS
GOAL:• To reduce gap between the all students category and the

We are getting better!!
Levels – Things to consider
• Indicator 11 – timely evaluations this is critical• Indicator 8 – parent surveys in so they are
counted• Indicator 20 – timely data examples
– Child Count rosters back on time– Personnel data returned in a timely manner– Discipline data correctly entered in NASIS– Exit data entered in NASIS
Final Word…
– Data collections are getting much better every year
– Make the task useful, look at your own data and use it
Thank You For All Your Hard Work in Improving the Data Collections!!
