DATA UPDATE: Student Reporting for Students on an Institutional Voucher with ASDB

Special Education Directors,

Beginning in the fiscal year 2021, the Arizona State School for the Deaf and Blind (ASDB) will no longer be reporting student-level data through Arizona Education Data Standards (AzEDS)  and a variety of other applications. The reporting responsibility for the students on an institutional voucher will fall back on the originating district of residence (DOR) or the public education agency (PEA) responsible for implementing the individualized education program of the child. This should align with the home school district (HSD) that has approved the institutional voucher with ASDB. This shift in data reporting responsibility does not change how the ESS voucher process works. Please see this memo for additional guidance.
