The Fall Membership validation will be refreshed weekly in January 2026. Please view your data in the Achievement Data Insight application. The Regional ESD Partners will notify those districts that have not yet viewed their data. Validation email notices go out January 7 to districts and institutions that have unusual data. Please view and edit your data as soon as possible, since no changes will be allowed to First ​Period Cumulative ADM after January 23, 2026. Please also be aware that you will have limited time to edit First Period Cumulative ADM if you need to do so to address your Second Period Cumulative ADM audits. If you have any questions, please contact your Regional ESD Partner or Robin Stalcup, Research Analyst.

The Staff Position Collection is currently open and is set to close on February 9, 2026. Staff Position gathers data for all school, district, and ESD staff that were actively employed for at least 20 consecutive workdays over a span of time that includes December 1, 2025. Resources for this collection, including a recording of the training held on December 3, are ​available on the Staff Position Collection page.

For more information regarding the Staff Position collection, please contact your Regional ESD Partner or Ryan Clark, Research Analyst, at 971-208-0471.

The Institution Staff Maintenance Application launched in August for all districts, schools, and education service districts. Responsible parties must work with their District Security Administrators (DSAs) to be granted access to the new application in Central Login. DSAs may be required to first give themselves access to the application prior to giving access to others. Refer to the instructions in the application and the posted user guide for instructions on how to add, edit, and remove staff positions within the application. Head of Organization position (principal​s and superintendents) changes may be requested within the application in a fillable form. For non-staff requests or questions, email the Institutions Team.

ODE will be piloting two new collections for the 2025-26 school year, Graduation Pathway and Course Grade History. These collections will include course grades and credits as well as total credits and GPAs for high school students. File formats are available on the ODE District File Formats page. The data will be used to help evaluate ODE and legislative initiatives to support high school success, and ODE is also planning to use the data to support the Direct Admissions Initiative being developed by the Higher Education Coordinating Commission.

The pilot collection, with data to be collected in Summer 2026, will be used to further develop file formats and business rules for full implementation in the 2026-27 school year. ODE is encouraging districts to participate in the pilot to help us ensure the data collection is flexible eno​ugh to meet the needs of school districts, ODE and the Direct Admissions Initiative. If you are interested in participating in the pilot, please contact Jon Wiens.
