STATE & FEDERAL ACCOUNTABILITY
Texas provides annual academic accountability ratings to its public school districts, charters and schools.
The accountability ratings are based largely on performance on state standardized tests and graduation rates. The ratings examine student achievement, student progress, efforts to close the achievement gap and postsecondary readiness.
The school report card (SRC) combines accountability ratings, data from the Texas Academic Performance Reports (TAPR), and financial information to give a broad view of campus performance.
The Texas Academic Performance Reports (TAPR) pull together a wide range of information annually on the performance of students in each school and district in Texas.
The overall design of the accountability system evaluates performance according to three domains:
Student Achievement evaluates performance across all subjects for all students, on both general and alternate assessments, College, Career, and Military Readiness (CCMR) indicators, and graduation rates.
School Progress measures district and campus outcomes in two areas: the number of students that grew at least one year academically (or are on track) as measured by STAAR results and the achievement of all students relative to districts or campuses with similar economically disadvantaged percentages.
Closing the Gaps uses disaggregated data to demonstrate differentials among racial/ethnic groups, socioeconomic backgrounds and other factors. The indicators included in this domain, as well as the domain’s construction, align the state accountability system with the federal Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA).
TEA Accountability Information
-
The Texas Academic Performance Reports (TAPR) pull together a wide range of information on the performance of students in each school and district in Texas every year. Performance is shown disaggregated by student groups, including ethnicity and socioeconomic status. The reports also provide extensive information on school and district staff, programs, and student demographics.
-
The school report card (SRC) combines accountability ratings, data from the Texas Academic Performance Reports (TAPR), and financial information to give a broad view of campus performance. Available for each campus in Texas, the SRC is intended specifically to inform parents and guardians about a school’s individual characteristics and its academic performance.
District & all campuses are in one file.
-
The Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), as amended by the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), requires each State education agency to prepare and publish an annual report card with state-, district- and campus-level data. ESSA also requires each State education agency to report annually to the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Education.
Every district that receives Title I, Part A funding is responsible for distributing the state-, district- and campus-level report cards to each of its campuses, the parents of all enrolled students, and the general public.
For some LEAs and campuses, small data cells are masked in order to protect student confidentiality. When this is the case, the reports may display an asterisk (*) or a percentage preceded by a less than or greater than symbol (<1%).
INFORMATION INCLUDED IN THE FEDERAL REPORT CARD
RESPONSABILIDAD ESTATAL Y FEDERAL
Texas proporciona calificaciones anuales de responsabilidad académica a sus distritos escolares públicos, escuelas chárter y escuelas.
Las calificaciones de responsabilidad se basan en gran medida en el desempeño en las pruebas estandarizadas estatales y las tasas de graduación. Las calificaciones examinan los logros de los estudiantes, el progreso de los estudiantes, los esfuerzos para cerrar la brecha de logros y la preparación postsecundaria.
La boleta de calificaciones de la escuela (SRC) combina calificaciones de responsabilidad, datos de los Informes de rendimiento académico de Texas (TAPR) e información financiera para brindar una visión amplia del rendimiento del campus.
Los Informes de Rendimiento Académico de Texas (TAPR) reúnen anualmente una amplia gama de información sobre el rendimiento de los estudiantes en cada escuela y distrito de Texas.
El diseño general del sistema de rendición de cuentas evalúa el desempeño de acuerdo con tres dominios:
El rendimiento estudiantil evalúa el desempeño en todas las materias para todos los estudiantes, tanto en evaluaciones generales como alternativas, indicadores de preparación universitaria, profesional y militar (CCMR) y tasas de graduación.
El progreso escolar mide los resultados del distrito y del campus en dos áreas: la cantidad de estudiantes que crecieron al menos un año académicamente (o están encaminados) según lo medido por los resultados de STAAR y el rendimiento de todos los estudiantes en relación con los distritos o campus con porcentajes de desventaja económica similares.
Closing the Gaps utiliza datos desglosados para demostrar diferencias entre grupos raciales/étnicos, antecedentes socioeconómicos y otros factores. Los indicad
