Demographics Student demographic data is derived from the California Longitudinal Pupil Achievement Data System (CALPADS) and reflects student demographics as captured in the demographic snapshot. Demographic snapshots for students who tested occur at the time the student starts testing or for alternate assessment students when scoring is complete, and the score becomes available for reporting in the Test Operations Management System (TOMS). For students that did not test, the demographic snapshot is taken daily until the end of the Initial ELPAC testing window for reporting in the Test Operations Management System (TOMS). Note that the source for each field is indicated in the file layout. Data sources for the student data file are as follows:
• CALPADS—Extracted from CALPADS • Derived—Created during generation of the student data file • Scoring—Created as a result of scoring • TOMS—Extracted from TOMS • DEI—Data Entry Interface
Score Data Score data includes (1) the overall scale score and performance level, (2) oral language performance levels, and (3) written language performance levels.
Test Administration Data Test administration data includes flags and condition codes describing specific elements of test administration. These include flags for Attemptedness codes, Include Indicators, accommodations, domain exemptions, and alternate assessment that occurred during the administration.
Treatment of Students in Nonpublic, Nonsectarian Schools for Data Aggregation The school-level data for nonpublic, nonsectarian schools (NPSs) is removed from the aggregate data published on the ELPAC public web reporting site; this data will not be searchable and will not appear in the aggregate reporting. The county, LEA, and direct funded charter school totals continue to include students attending NPSs in their aggregate data. If the Special Education District of Accountability field is populated in the student’s data record, then the student record is aggregated to the county, district, and school entity levels or direct funded charter school code provided.

LEA Reporting Rules LEA reporting rules are used for student data files, aggregate files, and public web reporting. 1. For the online and emergency form test (all grades), students who have tested with a valid
score (attemptedness = “Y”) or without a valid score (attemptedness = “P”) are reported under the last tested LEA received for the online domains.
2. For the online and emergency form test (all grades), students who were assigned alternate assessments or alternate assessments and domain exemptions for all domains are reported under the enrolled LEA.
3. For the online and emergency form test (all grades), when the non-assigned domains is tested, student(s) who were assigned alternate assessments or alternate assessments and domain exemptions for fewer than four domains, are reported under the last non-assigned domain tested LEA.
4. Students who have not tested are reported under the enrolled LEA. 5. A student record is present in only one tested LEA student data file per the rules mentioned
previously if the student tested in multiple LEAs. 6. The aforementioned tested LEA will be used for aggregate files and public web reporting.

Condition Code Rules Condition codes are used by LEAs and the TOMS team to identify a special condition in a student’s test record for reporting, such as setting Include Indicators. Condition codes are derived by TOMS. All condition codes are visible in the TOMS user interface. 1. For system-derived condition codes, the ALT and EXD condition codes are derived based on
an alternate assessment or domain exemption assignment in TOMS. The NT condition code is assigned to a student who is eligible to test but did not test and the student’s ELAS status changed from TBD to non-TBD ELAS.
2. Exemption results in a no score with an “NS” value assigned by the scoring system. The EXD condition code is reported in the student data files.
3. Alternate assessment results in a lowest obtainable scale score (LOSS) and exemption results in a no score with an “NS” value. As a result, ALT overrides the EXD condition code. When a student has both alternate assessment and domain exemption, the resulting composite score will be a calculated LOSS derived from ALT.
4. Only one condition code can be applied per student per the rules listed in items one, two, or three.
5. Condition codes impact Include Indicator and aggregation logic. 6. Condition codes appear in the state and LEA student data (downloadable) files.

Condition Codes (Field 90)
Code Description Derived From Resulting Score Comment ALT The student
was tested with an alternate assessment
This code is used when, one, two, three, or four of the alternate assessment domains are selected or an alternate assessment and exemption on one or both composites are selected for the student on the test assignment screen in TOMS.
The result is the LOSS on ALT designated domain(s).
N/A
EXD Exempt Domain
This code is used when, within a composite, only one of the two domains is selected as exempt for the student on the test assignment screen in TOMS.
The result is a calculated score for the composite using the nonexempt domain for that composite, and a derived overall score.
N/A
NT Not Tested This is the default condition code when valid eligibility is present, the student did not test, and the student’s ELAS status changed from TBD to non-TBD.
The student is present in the data file with no score; a Student Score Report is not generated.
The NT condition code is applied as a closing event at the end of the statewide testing window and when all student scores have been imported into TOMS.
2021–2022 Initial ELPAC Student Data File Layout July 06, 2021—Page 151
Attemptedness and Participation Rules (Field 91)
Attemptedness/Completion Status Label Description P Partial-
completion 1. If alternate assessment or domain exemption is assigned and the student did not log on to the nonexempt or alternate assessment domain(s), the student will be reported as tested without a valid overall score. 2. If the student logged on to one or more domains and did not log on to the remaining domains, the student will be reported as tested without a valid overall score. 3. Partially completed student records will be force-completed at the end of the Initial ELPAC testing window.
Y Completion Completion is assigned to students who met the participation rule. 1. If a student logged on to all four domains, the student is
reported as tested. 2. If an alternate assessment or domain exemption
(maximum of one domain in each composite) was assigned across all four domains, the student is reported as tested.
3. If an alternate assessment or domain exemption was assigned to fewer than four domains, the student needed to log on to the remaining unassigned domains to complete participation in all four domains and be reported as tested.

Include Indicator Rules for Reporting Include Indicator allowable values are “N” and “Y.” To determine the Include Indicator for ELPAC, follow the logic steps provided: 1. If the condition code is NT (not tested), then output a value of “N” and STOP; if this condition
is not met, proceed to step 2. 2. If the attemptedness is “P,” then output a value of “T” and STOP; if this condition is not met,
proceed to step 3. 3. If the overall attemptedness value is "Y," then output a value of "Y" and STOP.
Include Indicators are used to determine which students and scores are included in the aggregated formulas. Include Indicators are set for each test.
2021–2022 Initial ELPAC Student Data File Layout July 06, 2021—Page 153
Include Indicators (Field 92) Code Meaning N The student did not test and received a condition code of NT. T The student tested and did not meet the participation rule or received an
attemptedness value of “P” from the scoring system. Y The student tested and received a valid score or received an attemptedness value
of "Y" from the scoring system.

Test Eligibility and Registration Rules TOMS received student enrollment information from CALPADS, it creates test eligibility based on the predefined set of rules that take student grade, enrolled location, and demographic attributes into consideration. Student test eligibility determines if a student’s record appears in the LEA Student Data (downloadable) files. There is a test eligibility attribute called “validity.” Eligibility is considered valid on the basis of the student’s opportunity to test within the statewide testing window. All students with a valid indicator are included in the LEA Student Data (downloadable) files, while Invalid Indicator student records are excluded from reporting, as they may have been exited from CALPADS prior to the start of the statewide testing window or enrolled in CALPADS after the end of the statewide testing window. TOMS use the date when the student was removed from the CALPADS enrollment file and compares the date against the statewide testing window start and end dates. The student exit date provided by CALPADS, which may be backdated in some cases, is not used to determine whether a student was exited prior to the start of testing. Student CALPADS ELAS, primary language, and age < 22 years demographic fields determine student eligibility. Students with an ELAS of TBD, primary language designation—not English or Sign Language, and age < 22 years —before the start of the testing are eligible to test.

Non-TBD CALPADS ELAS Status Tested Student(s) Reporting Rules Student’s ELAS changed from TBD to non-TBD before the start of the testing. Student’s registration is changed to
invalid, test block is placed in Test Delivery System (TDS) and the student cannot test.
Student’s ELAS changed from TBD to non-TBD after the start of the first test. Student registration is not removed from TOMS.
If at the end of the testing window CALPADS ELAS = TBD, and tested, students will be reported if the participation rules are met.
If at the end of the testing window CALPADS ELAS = non-TBD, student scores will be reported (SSRs, Student Data files, End of Year Reporting files) only if all four domains are logged on. This may include an alternate assessment, domain exemption assigned across all four domains. The ELAS needs to remain TBD in the student data file report.
If at the end of testing window CALPADS ELAS = non-TBD, students will not be reported if all four domains are not logged on or do not have alternate assessment or domain exemptions assigned across all four domains.
– Initial ELPAC registration for the student will be removed to exclude from all reporting deliverables.

P (Partially tested students)
No No 1) Students with attemptedness value of ‘P’ receive an overall performance level value of ‘NS.'
2) Calculated ELAS cannot be derived using ‘NS’ overall performance level.
3) As a result, Calculated ELAS from Initial ELPAC testing will not be sent for from TOMS to CALPADS for students who received attemptedness value of ‘P.’ These students’ ELAS will remain in 'TBD' status in CALPADS until the following administration year.
4) The LEAs will need to re-enroll and re-administer all four domains of Initial ELPAC the following administration year in the student's new grade.
Y (Participation met)
Yes Yes 1) Calculated ELAS will be derived by TOMS for students who received attemptedness value of 'Y' using the overall performance level value.
2) Student with overall performance level of 1 or 2 are assigned an ELAS value of ‘EL’
3) Student with overall performance level of 3 are assigned an ELAS value of ‘IFEP’
4) Calculated ELAS derived by TOMS will be sent to CALPADS, daily until the end of Initial ELPAC testing window or all Initial ELPAC results for the administration are posted.
