List of IBCs attained, IBC status, and flag for students who meet CCMR via sunsetting IBC only
Stage 1: March 31, 2023
  • CCMR indicators submitted via PEIMS through the 2021–22 school year
  • OnRamps and TSIA results through 2021–22 school year
  • SAT, ACT, AP, IB and level I/II certificate results through the 2020–21 school year     

Background
The CCMR Tracker is a tracking tool within the TEA Login (TEAL) Accountability application. This tool provides districts with an early preview of CCMR status for students who are in grades 9–12 during the 2022–23 school year. The CCMR Tracker contains lagging data as is detailed in the chart below. While the Tracker contains students who were in grades 9–12 on the 2022–23 PEIMS snapshot, the 2023 version does not contain results from school year 2022–23 as those data have yet to be reported.

Indicators are credited if earned within date ranges provided below for students beginning with grade 9 enrollment. TSI assessments are the only CCMR indicator that may be earned prior to grade 9. Indicators reported upon graduation (IEP and workforce readiness graduates and special education graduate with advanced diploma plan) do not appear in the Tracker.

Sunsetting IBCs
Beginning with 2023 ratings, a campus may not earn CCMR credit for more than five graduates, or 20 percent of graduates, whichever is higher, who only meet CCMR criteria via a sunsetting IBC. This limit is applied within Student Achievement and School Progress, Part B: Relative Performance domains. For more information on Sunsetting IBCs for Accountability see the IBC webpage and Chapter 2 of the 2023 Accountability Manual.
