Civil Rights Data Collection

CRDC (Civil Rights Data Collection) consists of district-wide school data counts and district counts. There are over 100 data categories with disaggregate group elements for each tracked in Focus. Focus generates the actual compliant file for upload, but supports a “student listing” combined with a “use field titles” to audit the counts found in the CRDC file.
