Enrollment File Processing Restored
Email Update, October 20, 2026
The issue affecting the processing of nightly enrollment files has been resolved, and normal data transmissions between the California Longitudinal Pupil Achievement Data System (CALPADS), Test Operations Management System (TOMS), and Test Delivery System (TDS) have resumed. We understand the inconvenience this has caused your staff and students, and we appreciate your patience as we worked to resolve the issue.
Next Steps for ETS:
To ensure all student information is current and accurate, ETS has resumed processing the enrollment files.
By 8 a.m. on October 20, 2026, the CALPADS file containing all updates as of October 16, 2026, will have been processed, and the associated information will be updated in TOMS and the TDS.
As processing is completed:
- Newly enrolled students will be added to TOMS and the TDS.
- Updates to student demographic information, test assignments, and test settings will be reflected in both systems.
- ELPAC domain exemptions submitted during the outage period will be applied.
- English Language Acquisition Status (ELAS) values will be updated in TOMS based on the information received from CALPADS.
- User role additions, updates, and password reset requests will resume normal processing.
Next Steps for LEAs:
Testing Delays
LEA CAASPP coordinators and LEA ELPAC coordinators should review student records in TOMS and the TDS and verify that student demographic information, test assignments, test settings, and domain exemptions are accurate before administering assessments to students whose records were added or updated during the outage period.
If a student was unable to test because of this issue, testing may proceed once the student’s information has been verified in the TDS.
User Roles and Password Resets
By 8 a.m. on October 20, 2026, any pending user role additions or updates submitted during the outage period will be processed. Users who were unable to access the system during the outage may need to submit a password reset request. LEAs experiencing access issues after October 20, 2026, should contact the California Outreach Team.

Sincerely,
California Outreach Team
