2023-2024 Data Collection

There are no changes to the 2023-2024 data collection process.

NCEA will continue to have the option to collect school and diocesan data through FACTS’ DART system. For schools not using FACTS, schools will continue to send their data to their diocese and dioceses will submit their data through Excel. When using the Excel form, please do not delete the individual rows on the “Elementary” and “Secondary” tabs. This will allow NCEA to create a longitudinal school-level database to better understand trends across the country. We appreciate your efforts in collecting this valuable data.

We created two short videos explaining how to fill out the forms for schools and dioceses. If you have more questions, please email the data and research team at [email protected].
