Adjusted Cohort Graduation (P210) Student Details Reports – continued • Modified Enrollment Status • Currently enrolled (no School Exit Date) and counted as continuing (E0), but does not have any enrollment in the final school year and will be considered as Unknown dropouts (U1). • Students who were reported with a school withdrawal code of T1 – confirmed transfer to another school within your district. Students in report have not yet been identified as enrolling in another school within your district or elsewhere in Washington. For cohort calculation purposes the status of the students will be either continuing or dropped out: • Student(s) reported with final enrollment status of T1 after May 31st of final cohort year will be considered actively enrolled (continuing) • Student(s) reported with final enrollment status of T1 prior to June 1st of final cohort year will be considered Unknown dropouts • Cohort List • Students displayed in this report are those identified as belonging to the cohort group for the school year being reviewed whose enrollment in Washington was last reported in your district.
Adjusted Cohort Graduation (P210) Cohort Graduation Rates There are two separate cohort graduation rates calculated • The actual adjusted four-year on-time cohort graduation rate. The calculation follows students for four years from the beginning of 9th grade to the end of 12th grade. Only students that graduate “on-time” (before the end of their first 12th grade year) appear in the numerator. • The actual adjusted five-year cohort extended graduation rate. The calculation follows students for five years from the beginning of 9th grade to the year after they are expected to graduate. It is called the “extended” rate because it essentially provides a one-year extension for students to graduate and still be included in the graduation rate.

CEDARS Non Standard FAQ’s • Can I send multiple submissions in one day? • Yes, however only the last submission received in the day will be processed and loaded. • Can we work in multiple school years simultaneously? • Yes, once a school year is imported into CEDARS Non-Standard it remains loaded and changes made within the application are saved. • Does CEDARS process submissions 7 days a week? • Yes. • Why do I have District Student Demographic logical deletes in my 9-10 submissions? • SSIDs assigned through bulk upload or screen entry are inserted initially into the 9-10 school year. There is no harm in logically deleting these records.
CEDARS Non Standard FAQ’s • I sent a Delta submission but don’t see it in CEDARS. • Once a Delta submission is sent, you must go into CEDARS Non-Standard, review any rejected Delta records, and submit from Non-Standard. • How can I edit records from 08-09 school year for my 5 year cohort? • Edits cannot be made to 08-09 records. The 08-09 school year is the last year of the old 'locked' P210 data. • Do we need to import each time we want to make changes to the same school year? • In most cases, a district will only need to import their last submission once. The data for that school year will remain loaded, and edits to that data saved, unless another import is completed.
