Open Doors/Youth Reengagement Year-End Reporting

We are glad to announce that the
end of year annual data collection
is open in EDS early!!!

The due date for districts to submit all youth reengagement data will be NOVEMBER 2, 2020. This allows programs time to submit data to the district and to verify the data.

Reach out to your district CEDARS Administrator and those assigned with the user role for the application - in this case, Youth Reengagement Basic User, to verify that the report has been submitted.

Programs that are not serving students in the month of August can start to input their data for students served in the 2019-2020 school year.

Portal Access for Annual Reporting

The Open Doors Youth Reengagement Annual End of Year Report is OPEN for the 2019-2020 school year!

The Youth Reengagement application is accessed through the Education Data System (EDS). If you need access to the application, please contact your District Data Security Manager.

The application starts with being able to download a template pre-populated with your students' demographic information directly from the application.

Sort the students by unique program code if you have more than one program
Send through your normal secure means for the program to complete the report with student outcomes
Return, then Upload

The link to the Youth Reengagement Annual Reporting user guide will be posted soon on the public K12 website EDS Application User Guides page and Open Doors Youth Reengagement resources page.

The user guide is also embedded in the home page of the Youth Reengagement application, below the list of CEDARS District Administrators.

**Remember, if student data is missing or inaccurate in the EDS application, you must fix the data in CEDARS and then wait overnight for the application to refresh with the updated information!
New this year in the application is the ability to download your final results with all of the CEDARS data incorporated into the download. This feature will allow districts to share back data to their programs to do quality continuous improvement and to look at the array of outcomes across programmatic pathways to determine effectiveness.

For questions regarding Youth Reengagement Open Doors policies, contact Matthew Frizzell matthew.frizzell@k12.wa.us, Asst Director for Data Support and Implementation, or Lisa Ireland lisa.ireland@k12.wa.us, Research Analyst for Student Information.
