CEDStandards / CEDS-Elements

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.

Use Case Title Update the DES locations for the elements "Low-Income Status" and "Family Income"

Use Case Description Expand the location of the following elements in the Domain Entity Schema (DES)

Use Case Background The Education-to-Workforce Indicator Framework recommends disaggregating data by income level at the pre-K, K12, postsecondary, and workforce levels to determine whether individuals or households are considered low, medium or high income. This helps identify disparities caused by economic inequality and unequal access to certain supports.

The CEDS elements "Low-Income Status" and "Family Income" are being used to calculate income levels. To support the collection of this data for Early Learning and K12, the location of these elements in the DES needs to be expanded.
