The Common Education Data Standards (CEDS) are an education data management initiative whose purpose is to streamline the understanding of data within and across P-20W institutions and sectors. CEDS includes a common vocabulary complete with standard elements names, definitions, and option sets. This repository contains all the CEDS elements, definitions, option sets and their definitions, and entities and definitions. Its purpose is to expand that vocabulary to meet the needs of every education stakeholder. The expanded vocabulary is then added to the CEDS Integration Data Store and CEDS Data Warehouse – the other two repositories located here.
This is for capturing needs not currently supported by the CEDS model. Please do not send or share actual data as examples in this issue or in attachments.

Use Case Title Provide a concise description that defines the use case.
Need a way to represent reentry into English language proficiency program explicitly
Use Case Description List the proposed element name(s), definition(s), and/or option set(s).
OPTION 1: Add element to indicate if the English Learner is re-entering ELP services
OPTION 2: Change English Learner Status to include a third option of “Re-Entered”
Proposed Option Set If needed, provide existing and proposed new options
Recommend new CEDS option to Program Participation Status to indicate Reentry to program. CEDS collects EL information in Program Participation (along with other programs). However, the EL program does have a business need to know the initial entry date differentiated from the re-entry date. We understand that most programs do not need to know re-entry as a unique type, however, CEDS needs to allow for this reporting in the more generic program participation elements. It would not be our intent to change program participation status for other programs unless they also needed to specifically use the re-entry.
Location of Element in the Domain Entity Schema
Early Learning -> EL Child -> Disability -> ELP Re-Entry Status
K12 -> K12 Student -> English Learner -> ELP Re-Entry Status
The group addresses issues submitted by SEAs that require approval from three organizations. You can access the priority tickets spreadsheet here. Teams meeting link here.
