This document helps LEA data submitters determine which schools should be reported for the Civil Rights Data Collection (CRDC). It acts as a roadmap, presenting clear definitions, specific instructions, and a range of common scenarios. These enable the data submitters to categorize schools accurately and understand various educational settings, such as charter schools, magnet programs, and special education schools. Key criteria and reasons for not reporting are explained, including detailed breakdowns and the supporting information needed for each reason.
