California School Information Services (CSIS)
As a service of FCMAT, CSIS assists LEAs in addressing a variety of challenges in the management and exchange of public school student, staff and institutional information.
For support with the California Longitudinal Pupil Achievement Data System (CALPADS), CSIS designates staff to help us succeed in learning, troubleshooting, error resolution, bug fixes, and many other tasks to successfully report data and meet deadlines. Check out some of their helpful resources:

Announcements
Monterey County is considered in the Central Valley Region. While we are encouraged to register for the session scheduled for the Central Valley Region, you may register for any of these sessions if one time works better than another.
The most current CALPADS File Specifications (CFS) have been updated by the CDE.
These pages include resources created and/or shared by San Diego COE, and whose CALPADS Connections has been an invaluable source of inspiration for our own Connections group.
