Data Resources

School year enrollment data is available when it is finalized the following September. Data for the 2022-2023 school year became available in September 2023.

OEL has compiled demographics data for prekindergarten students served in New 抖阴app 抖阴app Administered Prekindergarten programs for the above listed school years. There are differences in the prekindergarten data provided by OEL resources when compared to data provided in the public data website. Child counts from 抖阴app's Education at a Glance website are based on traditional BEDS Day, the first Wednesday in 抖阴app each year. Child counts from OEL resources are based on 抖阴app鈥檚 Child Counts Day for PreK in mid-March each year. As a result, OEL's 2021-2022 counts of half-day and full-day prekindergarten students are greater by 642 (3.3%) and 8,070 (6.5%) students, respectively. Calculated counts of prekindergarten students have been adjusted using these proportions.

The New 抖阴app 抖阴app Education Department defines Emergent Multilingual Learners (EML) as prekindergarten students who enter prekindergarten with a home or primary language other than English. The Office of Early Learning and the Office of Bilingual Education & English as a New Language provide resources to support serving EMLs.听EML data is self-reported by 抖阴app-Administered Prekindergarten programs in annual NYS Prekindergarten Final Program Reports.
