Programmatic Reporting: K12 SWP CalPass Plus Data Submission Requirement
All K12 Local Educational Agencies (LEAs) must submit their data for Fiscal Year (FY) 2023-2024 through the CalPASS system. Timely and accurate uploads of all required records are essential to ensure compliance and data integrity.
If you encounter any difficulties accessing the CalPASS system, please contact calpass@cccco.edu for support.
Please note that while the Chancellor’s Office is transitioning to the new DataVista platform, it is not yet ready to accept K12 data. Therefore, K12 Strong Workforce Program (SWP) grantees should continue uploading their CALPADS data to CalPASS Plus as usual.
A reminder that all grant recipients, both lead and partnering K12 Local Education Agencies, are required to:
1. Sign an MOU with Cal-PASS Plus to facilitate the sharing of data with the Cal-PASS Plus data system;
2. Maintain a current MOU with Cal-PASS Plus throughout the life of the awarded grant; AND
3. Upload end-of-year data files, as applicable and required by K12 SWP, into the Cal-PASS Plus system annually by November 1. This includes every school year covered within the grant term.
Round 5 & 6 Grantees: Please ensure your MOU is in place and prepare to upload. This includes connecting with the people at your district responsible for data, usually the person who handles the CALPADs uploads will be the one to work on Cal-PASS Plus. If you do not have an MOU, visit https://www.calpassplus.org/Join. If you are unsure if your agency or a partner agency has an MOU, check the Cal-PASS Plus membership list.
