While schools were not asked what type of content was included in these lessons or in the election-related activities, the findings presented here show the prevalence of election-related information and engagement opportunities in the nation&rsquo;s public schools.</p> <p>Figure 1 shows the percentage of schools that reported that teachers were incorporating the 2024 national election into their lessons, for each of the respective grades. More than half of public schools reported that teachers were incorporating the national election into their lessons at fourth and higher grades, peaking at twelfth grade (85 percent).&nbsp;</p> <hr /> <p><strong>Figure 1.

CCD nonfiscal data are made available to the public as data files, as well as in user-friendly data tools, and include the district and school directory (location, operational status, and grades offered) as well as data on student membership (by grade, sex, and race/ethnicity), full-time equivalent staff and teachers, and the number of students eligible for the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.fns.usda.gov/nslp">National School Lunch Program (NSLP)</a>.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Why is CCD so important? </strong></p> <p>The CCD is a trusted data source used by ED stakeholders, researchers, and the public. Timely release of high-quality, accurate CCD data is critical not only to these stakeholders but also to ED&rsquo;s commitment to providing high-quality data products.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>CCD data are now released within months of submission by states!</strong></p> <p><img alt="Bar Graph reporting the night of months from the due date to the CCD release 4 months in SY 2023-24, 5 months in SY 2022-23, 8 month in SY 2020-21, 11 month in SY 2018-19 and 20 month in SY 2016-17" align="right" height="265" hspace="12" src="/blogs/nces/image.axd?picture=%2f2024%2f11%2fCCD+BLOG+Graphic.png" />Over the past several years, NCES made process improvements to the collection and dissemination of CCD data (described below) that allow NCES to release the CCD data more quickly than ever before. As a result of these changes, the school year (SY) 2023-24 CCD data files will be available to the public <strong>less than 4 months</strong> after the July 2024 submission due date.</p> <p>In contrast, the SY 2016-17 CCD data files were due in May 2017 and released January 2019 (a full 20 months later).</p> <p><strong>What has NCES done to release </strong><strong>HIGH-QUALITY </strong><strong>CCD nonfiscal data so quickly?</strong></p> <p>NCES modernized the CCD nonfiscal data quality (DQ) review and file production process in two phases:</p> <p><strong>Phase 1: Modernized CCD DQ review and file production.</strong> Defined the DQ standard through business rules, held state data providers to the defined DQ standard, developed a system to provide DQ feedback to states within a few days of submission, and improved the public file format.</p> <p>This CCD data quality system developed in Phase 1 served as a sandbox for the broader ED<em>Facts</em> modernization project, called EDPass. EDPass is a centralized data submission system used by ED to standardize data submissions across ED offices.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Phase 2: Full modernization of data submissions with EDPass</strong>. NCES manages the EDPass data submission tool for use by ED stakeholders including NCES, the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (OESE), and the Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP). The new submission tool, rolled out with the SY 2022-23 collection cycle, eliminated the time-consuming post-submission DQ process by running DQ checks at upload and requiring states to address all data quality issues prior to data submission.

The benefits from this investment, however, reach beyond data products, resulting in significant burden reductions both for states and for ED program offices that use the data. EDPass modernization also supports compliance with the <a href="https://www.congress.gov/106/plaws/publ554/PLAW-106publ554.pdf#:~:text=Wagner-Peyser%20Act,%20as%20amended,%20the%20Trade%20Act%20of">Information Quality Act</a>, the <a href="https://www.ed.gov/sites/ed/files/cdo/ed-data-strategy.pdf">ED-wide Data Strategy</a> effort to improve data access and advance the strategic use of data and, more broadly, ED&rsquo;s efforts to comply with the November 2023 <a href="https://oig.ed.gov/reports/top-management-challenges/fy-2024-management-challenges-facing-us-department-education">Office of Inspector General Management Challenges report. </a>&nbsp;</p> <p>Finally, while the gains from the EDPass modernization are illustrated in this blog through the SY 2023-24 CCD nonfiscal data release, this modernization impacts ALL data collected through the ED<em>Facts</em> submission system and will enable earlier release of high-quality data by other program offices, including OESE through <a href="https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&amp;&amp;p=f8795b91a9fe908cJmltdHM9MTcwNzk1NTIwMCZpZ3VpZD0xOGUzZDlmNS03YjYyLTZhN2MtMTExYS1jYTEzN2E2MDZiZjcmaW5zaWQ9NTIwMA&amp;ptn=3&amp;ver=2&amp;hsh=3&amp;fclid=18e3d9f5-7b62-6a7c-111a-ca137a606bf7&amp;psq=ed+data+express&amp;u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly9lZGRhdGFleHByZXNzLmVkLmdvdi8&amp;ntb=1">ED Data Express</a> and OSEP through ED&rsquo;s <a href="https://data.ed.gov/dataset/idea-section-618-data-products">Open Data Platform. </a>&nbsp;</p> </section> </article> <article class="post" id="post2"> <header class="post-header"> <h2 class="post-title"> <a href="/blogs/nces/post/celebrating-national-principals-month-highlights-from-the-national-teacher-and-principal-survey">Celebrating National Principals Month: Highlights from the National Teacher and Principal Survey</a> </h2> <div class="post-info clearfix"> <span class="post-date"><i class="glyphicon glyphicon-calendar"></i>October 16, 2024</span> <span class="post-author"><i class="glyphicon glyphicon-user"></i><a href="/blogs/nces/author/ncesblogeditor">NCES Blog Editor</a></span> <span class="post-category"><i class="glyphicon glyphicon-folder-close"></i><a href="/blogs/nces/category/General">General</a></span> <!-- <a rel="nofollow" class="pull-right post-comment-link" href="/blogs/nces/post/celebrating-national-principals-month-highlights-from-the-national-teacher-and-principal-survey#comment"><i class="glyphicon glyphicon-comment"></i>(0)</a> --> <span class="pull-right post-socialmedia"><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.twitter.com/share?url=http%3a%2f%2fnces.ed.gov%2fblogs%2fnces%2fpost%2fcelebrating-national-principals-month-highlights-from-the-national-teacher-and-principal-survey"><img src="/blogs/Custom/Themes/Standard-New/images/twitter.png" height="24" width="24" alt="Share on Twitter"></a><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=http%3a%2f%2fnces.ed.gov%2fblogs%2fnces%2fpost%2fcelebrating-national-principals-month-highlights-from-the-national-teacher-and-principal-survey"><img src="/blogs/Custom/Themes/Standard-New/images/facebook.png" height="24" width="24" alt="Share on Facebook"></a><a rel="nofollow" href="https://plus.google.com/share?url=http%3a%2f%2fnces.ed.gov%2fblogs%2fnces%2fpost%2fcelebrating-national-principals-month-highlights-from-the-national-teacher-and-principal-survey"><img src="/blogs/Custom/Themes/Standard-New/images/googleplus.png" height="24" width="24" alt="Share on Google+"></a></span> </div> </header> <section class="post-body text"> <p>October is <a href="https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/senate-resolution/876/text">National Principals Month</a>!

Among the data collected was information provided by the study children&rsquo;s parents. Without parents&rsquo; participation in the ECLS-K:2024, we wouldn&rsquo;t have a detailed understanding of America&rsquo;s children, their families, and their lives outside of school. Parents&rsquo; participation allows us to explore how different factors&mdash;at home and at school&mdash;relate to children&rsquo;s development and learning over time. &nbsp;</p> <p>For ECLS-K:2024, much of the information we are collecting from parents has been collected from kindergartners&rsquo; parents in earlier ECLS program studies. Having data about different group of kindergartners across time will allow NCES and researchers to examine changes over the past decades. One thing that&rsquo;s new for the ECLS-K:2024 are questions on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, such as how the pandemic affected parents and their family, including the study child. This information will help the public and state, local, and federal policymakers understand how to better support this generation of children.</p> <p>For past ECLS kindergarten cohorts, we have collected a wealth of demographic data about participating children&rsquo;s families that can be analyzed in conjunction with other data collected directly from the children themselves and their schools and teachers to shed light on influences on children&rsquo;s school experiences and development. For instance, <a href="https://nces.ed.gov/programs/coe/indicator/cce">The Condition of Education&rsquo;s &ldquo;Characteristics of Children&rsquo;s Families</a>&rdquo; uses data from the ECLS program studies along with other <a href="https://nces.ed.gov/surveys/">National Center for Education Statistics (NCES)</a> study data to help us understand trends in children&rsquo;s family composition over the years, such as the percentage of children living with a single male parent, with a single female parent, and in two-parent households. The ECLS-K:2024 data being collected now will allow us to add to these analyses, for example by examining data on same sex parent households and multigenerational households.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p> <p>Information on many parental and family characteristics is provided by parents in the ECLS-K:2024. The ECLS-K:2024 data extends our view, at the national level, of children&rsquo;s family backgrounds and how they have changed over the years on a variety of dimensions beyond type of parent or parents in household. For example, from <a href="https://nces.ed.gov/pubs2012/2012049.pdf">an analysis of the ECLS-K:2011</a> data, we know that 84 percent of first-time kindergartners in 2010-11 came from a household with English as the primary home language, 15 percent from a household with a language other than English as the primary home language, and 1 percent from a household with multiple home languages (no primary language identified). Has this pattern in family home language of our nation&rsquo;s kindergartners changed since 2010-11? The ECLS-K:2024 data parents provided last school year will let us know.</p> <p>The ECLS study team, as well as thousands of researchers, policymakers, educators, and parents, are excited to see what the ECLS-K:2024 parent-provided data tell us about today&rsquo;s kindergartners and families, as well as any changes we see for today&rsquo;s kindergartners as compared to those from 1998-99 and 2010-11.&nbsp; <strong>Thank you to our ECLS-K:2024 parents </strong>for contributing to the study and helping us learn more about America&rsquo;s children and families!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Want to learn more?&nbsp;</p> <ul> <li>Check out this brief <a href="https://youtu.be/YMa-sFg-GR8">video</a> about the ECLS program.</li> <li>Read up on the ECLS-K:2024 on NCES&rsquo;s <a href="https://nces.ed.gov/ecls/index.asp">ECLS website</a> or our <a href="https://myecls.ed.gov/">ECLS website for study participants</a>.</li> <li>Find resources for parents, teachers, and school administrators that use ECLS and other NCES data in our <a href="https://nces.ed.gov/ecls/news.asp">ECLS newsletters</a>.</li> <li>Find other ECLS posts on the <a href="https://nces.ed.gov/blogs/nces/">NCES Blog</a>.</li> <li>Sign up for the <a href="https://ies.ed.gov/newsflash/">NCES Newsflash</a>.</li> <li>Follow NCES on <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/ednces/">LinkedIn</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/EdNCES">X</a>, and <a href="https://www.facebook.com/EdNCES/">Facebook</a>.</li> </ul> <p>Plus, be on the lookout early this fall for the next ECLS blog post celebrating the ECLS-K:2024, which will highlight schools, teachers, and principals.
