SDER Application Open for Modifications

Pursuant to A.R.S. § 15-941, teacher experience data should have been transmitted to the Superintendent of Public Instruction by October 15th at 4:30 p.m. SDER data can be modified between February 1 and March 1.

SDER data is required to calculate your district’s Teacher Experience Index (TEI) which may increase your FY 2024 budget limit and equalization assistance. Preliminary TEI amounts can be viewed at the bottom of the SDER96 report at schoolfinancereports.azed.gov.

This requirement is for school districts only. Charter districts are not required to submit this information at this time.

Access the School District Employee Report (SDER) application via ADEConnect. If you do not have access to the SDER application in ADEConnect, please contact your Entity Administrator and request to be assigned the role "SDER - LEA User".

If a district’s data is not submitted and error free (File Status = Current Usable File), with teachers listed with their school's CTDS, it will not be included in the TEI calculation.  Final TEI reports will be available on or before March 15, 2023.
