Restraint & Seclusion Data

Each year, every charter reports its use of restraint and seclusion to the California Department of Education. Here are the numbers for each of our schools.

Data Collection

The California Department of Education (CDE) gathered data on restraint and seclusion from local educational agencies (LEAs) for the first time as part of the 2019–20 CALPADS End-of-Year (EOY) 3 annual data submission. To prepare for this effort, the CDE instructed LEAs to begin collecting this information locally starting in fall 2019, with submission to CALPADS scheduled between May and September 2020.

To support this data collection, the CALPADS student discipline data files were updated to include the following behavioral restraint and seclusion data, as defined in Education Code section 49005.1:

  • Mechanical Restraint: Use of a device or equipment to restrict a pupil’s freedom of movement (with exceptions).
  • Physical Restraint: A personal restriction that immobilizes or reduces the ability of a pupil to move his or her torso, arms, legs, or head freely (with exceptions).
  • Seclusion: The involuntary confinement of a pupil alone in a room or area from which the pupil is physically prevented from leaving.
