Master Schedule
Elementary Schools do not need to use a Master Schedule for CALPADS Reporting. The appropriate CALPADS- Specific fields are also available on the Elementary Teachers form.
Navigate to Scheduling Process > Master Schedule for secondary schools.
| Aeries Field Name | Aeries Table.Field | CALPADS FldNum | CALPADS Name | Comment |
| Section Number | MST.SE | 09.14 | Course Section ID | |
| Semester | MST.SM | 09.15 | Academic Term Code | CALPADS Code Set: Academic Term |
| Period, Semester, Days of the Week | MST.PD, MST.SM, MST.DY | 09.18 | Class ID | This field is built during the extract using information from many fields. This CALPADS field is used to associate multiple sections as being part of the same "Class" for purposes of determining Average Class Size. |
| Master Schedule School | MST.SCL | Master Schedule School | This field is generally left blank (0). It can be populated with a different school code to take attendance from within different school where a teacher is associated with two different schools. The CRSE/CRSC and SCSE/SCSC extracts will skip MST sections that have a "School" value populated that doesn't match MST.SC or STU.HS. See Teacher Multi-School Attendance. | |
| Class ID | MST.CID | 09.18 | Class ID | The Master Schedule Section Class ID field (MST.CID) can be used to link sections together in the CRSE extract. This will impact the CALPADS 3.1 Class Size - By Content Area Report for classes that are combined into one class with the same teacher, time and location but different section numbers. Ex: French 3 and 4 are separate sections but can be linked together by populating the MST.CID field on both sections with the same value, i.e. 100. |
| Teacher Number(s) | MST.TN, MST.TN2, MST.TN3 | For Team Teaching or Job Sharing situations, you must populate the additional Teacher Number fields. | ||
| Multiple Teacher Status | MST.MTS | 09.25 | Multiple Teacher Code | If multiple teachers are assigned to a class, you must populate these fields with code 01 or 02 to represent the way teachers are working together. Code 09 can be used to identify those classes that have more than one teacher, but they are not to be extracted with a multiple teachers status code.
*Flex Scheduling - The process is handled differently in Flex Scheduling schools. See Flex Scheduling for details. |
| Highly Qualified Teacher | MST.HQT | 09.28 | HQT Competency Code | CALPADS has retired this code set. Civil Rights is still collecting for the 15- 16 school year reporting. All sections associated with "NCLB Core Courses" must have each teacher assignment populated with a Highly Qualified value. The CALPADS Codes for this field differ from those codes used in the past so be sure to verify your data is populated correctly. This information can optionally be populated in the STH (Staff Highly Qualified) table. And then by using the "Populate MST HQT from STH" Macro, the fields in the Master Schedule will get populated. This does require that you have the NCLB Core Area populated on the Courses form. CALPADS Code Set: Content Area Competency Category |
| Education Service | MST.ESR | 9.20 | Education Service Code | TCH.ESR for Elementary Schools. |
| Language of Instruction | MST.LI | 09.21 | Language of Instruction Code | This field should only be populated if Education Service has a value of "1". It should also never be populated with "English" or "Sign Language". As of CALPADS 2023/24 academic year, the code will automatically translate to the 3-character language code from code set Languages (STU.HL). |
| Instructional Strategy | MST.INS | 09.22 | Instructional Strategy Code | **As of the 2019/2020 school year, this field is not used for English Learner Services. PGM will now be used to collect Language data at the student level in the SPRG file as an Education Program code. Only 2 Instructional Strategy codes remain:
|
| Independent Study Indicator | MST.ISI | 09.23 | Independent Study Indicator | A value of "Y" in this field will convert into the "Independent Study Indicator" CALPADS field when extracted. |
| Distance Learning Indicator | MST.DLI | 09.24 | Distance Learning Indicator | A value of "Y" in this field will convert into the "Distance Learning Indicator" CALPADS field when extracted. |
| Funding Source | MST.FS | 09.26 | Education Program Funding Source Code | This field should be populated as appropriate for codes: 113 – CA Partnership Academy 168 – Specialized Secondary Instruction |
| CTE Course Section Provider | MST.TEP | 09.27 | Field no longer used. | This field is no longer used and will extract with 'blank'. |
| Itinerant Teacher | MST.IT | This field, when flagged, will inspire the CALPADS CRSE extract to include teachers as a reported class, even without any students. Only courses that have terms which overlap census day will be extracted. | ||
| Content Sub Category | MST.CSC | 9.28 | Detailed Subject Indicator | If not populated, the course information CRS.CSC will be extracted. |
| Charter Non-Core | MST.CNC | 9.31 | Charter Core Indicator | Data element retired 7/1/2021 |
| AP/IB Course Code Cross Reference | MST.ACC | 9.32 | AP/IB Course Indicator | If not populated, the course information CRS.ACC will be extracted. |
| Online Course Instruction Type | MST.OIT | 9.33 | Type of Online Instruction Indicator | Indicates type of online instruction. If 9.24 Distance Learning Indicator is "Y" then this field is required to be populated. |
| Middle School Core | MST.MSC | 9.34 | Middle School Core Setting Indicator | Identifies if the course is part of a middle school core setting, where a teacher is teaching two or more subject areas to the same students on the same day in grades 5-8. If 9.29 Standard Grade Range is "MID" this indicator is required. If not populated, the course information CRS.MSC will be extracted. |
| Local Assignment Option | MST.NCA | 9.35 | Local Board Approval Indicator | Indicates that the local governing board approved authorization for a teacher to teach a course without the appropriate credential or authorization. |
| High Quality CTE Crs | MST.HQC | 9.36 | High Quality CTE Course Indicator | Indicates where the course and teacher meet the High Quality CTE Course qualifications. |
