Accountability Ratings
State Accountability System: The state accountability system uses student assessments (State of Texas Assessment of Academic Readiness or STAAR), but also makes use of additional indicators to provide parents and taxpayers greater detail on the performance of a district or charter and each individual campus throughout the state. The state accountability system uses a performance domain framework that considers three areas:
- 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.
- Student 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 Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA).
Overall Scores and Ratings are determined by a weighted average of the individual domain scores.
Texas School Accountability Ratings Update – October 2024
As of October 15, 2024, TEA has been temporarily barred from releasing the 2024 accountability ratings for school districts and campuses. This delay is due to an ongoing legal dispute that has impacted the timeline for publishing these ratings.
- Temporary Restraining Order: On August 12, 2024, a Travis County judge issued a temporary restraining order preventing the TEA from releasing the ratings. This action was in response to a lawsuit filed by several Texas school districts, which are challenging recent changes to the state’s accountability system.
- Pending Legal Proceedings: The legal proceedings are still in progress, and there is no definitive date for the release of the 2024 A-F accountability ratings. TEA has indicated that further actions, including the potential release of the ratings, will depend on upcoming judicial rulings.
We will continue to monitor this situation closely and provide updates as new information becomes available. Please note that the release of accountability ratings could be subject to further legal developments
