Removal of 2022 Accountability Reports and Student Listings in TEAL (August 4) 

In order to facilitate the posting of 2023 accountability reports, all 2022 accountability reports and student listings for all campuses and districts will be removed from the TEAL Accountability application on Friday, August 4th, 2023 (What If reports will remain available in TEAL). Once removed, the data contained in each report and student listing will be unavailable. Please ensure that your district downloads and maintains a copy of these reports and data for your records. 

Accountability reports consist of accountability summaries, calculations, and data tables for each domain. Accountability student listings include data that was used to calculate the STAAR performance; College, Career, and Military Readiness (CCMR); and English Language Proficiency components for 2022 accountability.

CCMR Verifier Final Listing coming soon (late July) 

The Final 2023 College, Career, and Military Readiness (CCMR) Student Listing will be released within TEAL Accountability application late July. This data download will contain the 2023 CCMR data for 2021 – 22 annual graduates and 2021 – 22 non-graduating 12th graders, including applicable corrections submitted and approved through the 2023 CCMR Verifier. This data will be used to calculate the College, Career, and Military Readiness components for 2023 accountability ratings.   

CCMR Tracker Release: Stage 2B coming soon (August 4) 

The College, Career, and Military Readiness (CCMR) Tracker Stage 2B will include the type of Industry Based Certification (IBC) a student has earned and if the IBC is on the sunsetting list.  The sunsetting limit is applied within Student Achievement and School Progress, Part B: Relative Performance Domains in 2023 accountability.  

A Sunsetting IBC did not meet one or more criteria listed in 19 TAC §74.1003. Sunsetting IBCs will continue to generate CCMR credit but a per campus limit will be applied based on students who only qualify for CCMR credit via a sunsetting IBC. The limit ensures that districts offer their students paths for postsecondary success and is set at five graduates, or 20 percent of graduates, whichever is higher. More information on IBCs can be found on the Industry-Based Certifications webpage and on the IBC Frequently Asked Questions document.
