District staff can review, make changes, and request principal and superintendent updates for staff listed at schools and districts within the Institution Staff Maintenance Application within Central Login. Please ensure someone within the district regularly reviews data within this application. Currently, the only required positions are the head of the institution (principals at schools and superintendents at districts), and as of 2026, four new positions: Civil Rights Coordinator, Title IX Coordinator, Section 504 Coor​dinator, and ADA/Title II Coordinator. All other positions are optional but should be maintained for accuracy if provided. Review the Institution Staff Maintenance Application User Guide for assistance. If you have any questions, please e-mail Amanda Leopard, Research Analyst.

The At-A-Glance School and District Profiles Validation opened on July 30 and will close September 11, 2026. Previews of your preliminary At-A-Glance Profiles are available to review in validation in the Achievement Data Insight (ADI) application.

Training for the At-A-Glance School and District Profiles was conducted on July 30, and a recording is available on the ODE District ​Training page. If you have questions regarding the At-A-Glance Profiles, please contact Elyse Bean or your Regional ESD Partner.​

To request changes to institutions within the Institutions Database, including grade level changes, address changes, type changes, parent changes, new institutions, and closures, districts must complete an Institution Request Form and provide additional required documentation (found on page 8 of the form). Changes should be submitted as soon as possible to ensure ODE data collections recognize any updates immediately. Changes that are reflected in At-A-Glance Profiles, such as address changes, must be requested prior to September 15. If you have any questions, please e-mail ode.institutions-request@ode.oregon.gov.

There are new documents currently available on the At-A-Glance School and District Profiles and Accountability Details pages on the ODE public website:

For questions, please contact Elyse Bean.

There are 10 schools still missing from the Class Schedule collection. Please contact your Regional ESD Partners as soon as possible to address any errors or difficulties you may have had.

Class Size Validation checks will go out this week. All types of core subject and self-contained classes were evaluated for changes in medians and numbers of reported class types. These checks identify unusual data and large changes in data contrasted to the 2024-25 school year. Also, institutions we​re identified that have missing students in cumulative Third Period ADM, or did not offer specific academic subjects under Division 22.

If you have questions, please contact Robin Stalcup, Research Analyst or the Regional ESD Partners can also help you edit your Class Schedule collection.
