Home Language Survey Professional Development
In an effort to introduce the standardized Home Language Survey to stakeholders, the ML/Title III Team is offering a professional development opportunity for all data management stakeholders (e.g., school data managers, Enrollment specialists, SIS Coordinators, ML coordinators, and administrators). This PD aims to provide participants with the necessary knowledge and resources to administer the state's standardized Home Language Survey effectively. By enhancing staff expertise, the program supports compliance with federal regulations and state board policies, ultimately improving educational practices.
Please share this flyer with any data managers in your charter who may need to attend.
Use this form to register for the session that best suits your needs. Space is limited! While we will try to honor all registrations, priority enrollment will be given to stakeholders from the state board region of the training.
OCR/CRDC - SY23-24 Status Update – Progress, Assistance & Certification Reminder
Note: PSUs that were not open in the school year 2023-24 are not required to participate in this collection.
The state collection status has been reviewed, and triggers and flags have been updated where possible. Each PSU has been directly contacted regarding their specific status if flags were updated. However, some PSU email notifications bounced back, indicating outdated contact information in the CRDC system (under the Admin section). To ensure the most accurate contact information, please review and update the CRDC system contacts, as the federal system did not pull directly from NCDPI’s universe file or contact list.
Impact of Updates:
- Increased completion percentages as invalid triggers have been resolved.
- Fields that should not collect data are now shut down, preventing unnecessary inputs.
- Some warnings may increase, particularly for 0s in skipped fields—these can be ignored as they will be removed from the final data set before submission.
These updates ensure more accurate progress tracking and reduce unnecessary data entry. However, PSUs should continue reviewing their sections to ensure all required data is complete.
If local data has not yet been added, now is the time to begin reviewing and entering required information. While NCDPI has preloaded as much as possible, some sections require local updates.
Additionally, do not certify CRDC submissions yet. DPI is still waiting for guidance from the federal level regarding HIBS-2 (Allegations of Harassment or Bullying by Religion Type). Once confirmation is received, an update will be sent to the state with certification instructions.
Attached is the most recent state progress report, which includes:
- Percentage complete for each PSU
- Certification status (whether or not the PSU has certified)
- Current contact information listed in the Federal Submission Tool
Remaining CRDC Error Review Webinars – DPI will be hosting two more real-time error review sessions where PSUs can receive assistance and share insights. Use the same link to join either session:
- Dates - Wednesdays, 2:30-4pm:
