Civil Rights (CRDC)

The Civil Rights Data Collection (CRDC) is a biennial survey of a sample of school districts conducted by the Federal Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights. The CRDC collects information about students in public schools, including enrollment, educational services and academic proficiency results, disaggregated by race/ethnicity, sex, limited English proficiency, and disability. Data elements are compiled and aggregated from the School Discipline and Attendance Submission, the October Count Submission, and the prior year’s End of Year Submission.
