screening participation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Identify students who have not completed a required screening.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Review participation by school or grade.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Monitor screening completion during Beginning, Middle, and End of Year administration windows.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Identify late-enrolling students who may be approaching or exceeding the expected screening

Report<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Total Students<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Total Students includes students who:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Are enrolled in Kindergarten, 1st grade, or 2nd grade<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Have a qualifying CALPADS enrollment record for the selected year<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Were enrolled on the selected As Of Date<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The report includes CALPADS grade codes associated with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Kindergarten: KN, K, or KG<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1st Grade: 01<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2nd Grade: 02<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Transitional Kindergarten is excluded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A student is considered enrolled when:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Enrollment Start Date is on or before the As Of Date, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enrollment Exit Date is blank, null, <code>0000-00-00<\/code>, or on or after the As Of Date<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When a student has multiple qualifying enrollment records, the record with the latest Enrollment Start Date is used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Screened<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A student is counted as Screened when the student:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Is included in the CALPADS as-of enrollment population<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Has an Amplify DIBELS record for the selected academic

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Progress-monitoring records do not count unless they are recognized as Beginning, Middle, or End of Year and contain a qualifying composite score and level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Not Screened<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not Screened is calculated as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Total Students \u2212 Screened<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This population includes enrolled students who do not have a qualifying Amplify DIBELS composite for any selected

in the Not Screened student list only for students identified as late enrollees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The report determines the district&#8217;s school start date using the most common K\u20132 Enrollment Start Date for the selected academic year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A student is considered a late enrollee when the student&#8217;s Enrollment Start Date is on or after:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>District School Start Date + 91 calendar days<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Days Since Enrollment is calculated using calendar days from the student&#8217;s Enrollment Start Date through the selected As Of Date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Values of <strong>45 days or more<\/strong> are highlighted as overdue based on California&#8217;s screening expectation for late-enrolling students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2
