Congratulations to these top readers. Winners were chosen by how many times they opened last week's newsletter and how many times they clicked on links.

❓ When will the Texas Academic Performance Reports (TAPR) be released?

Late November 2022

The TEAL listing should be posted the first week of December.

❓What accountability is a district required to share?

Each district must post its 2022 accountability ratings on its website. They must also provide information directly to parents regarding school performance. For detailed information on what is required, see the Posting FAQ.

❓ Where can students and staff find practice?

Go to: https://www.texasassessment.gov/educators.html

❓ Has the time limit for STAAR testing changed?

TEA is removing the maximum time allowed for STAAR assessments based on feedback from educators, parents, and students, as well as other changes to the program.

Districts will no longer have to stop students from testing after a four- or five-hour testing period. Students are expected to complete STAAR tests in about three hours. Any students who are still testing after four hours should be consolidated into a general testing area to continue testing. Students may continue testing until the end of the school day.

❓ How much is the Extended Constructed Response worth?

The ECR (Extended Constructed Response) is worth 10 points. There will be two graders with a maximum of 5 points each.

❓ What is the character count limit for the extended constructed response?

Reading SCR will be 475

Writing SCR will be 475

ECR will be 2300

❓ Who can make changes to AskTED?

The TED Administrator, you can find out who this is on AskTED. Search by District, Personnel, Include Other District Roles, TED Administrator

Charter Schools may email CharterAskTED@tea.texas.gov

❓ When will the information about the 2023 Accountability Reset and new targets come out? Fall 2022

❓ What is TPRS? Is it the same as TAPR?

The Texas Performance Reporting System (TPRS) integrates state and federal reporting requirements into a single reporting system that can be viewed at the campus, district, region, and state level. As the most comprehensive reporting system published by TEA, TPRS provides additional performance reports, results, and indicators for student groups not previously reported on state accountability data tables, the Texas Academic Performance Reports (TAPR), or the School Report Card. TPRS is the enhanced online version of TAPR. It has been recently updated with Remote vs. In-Person Data. TEAL Accountability application will show you unmasked data.

The TPRS Glossary provides definitions, describes methodologies, and lists sources for each tab in the TPRS system.

Please remember to update AskTED with any changes for the 2022-2023 school year.

Check to make sure you have a DTC and an Accountability contact in AskTED and that they are current. Only 40% of Region 10 districts have someone listed for the Accountability district contact.

Texas Education Agency AskTED

TEA, Student Assessment, Performance Reporting, and the ESC use these lists to relay important information to districts.

What’s New in Performance Reporting

A–F Accountability

An original design commitment during the development of the A–F system was that ratings would be criterion referenced with no fixed distribution. This design commitment remains true during our current 2023 refresh planning.

What does this commitment mean? Just as during original development, scaling cut points for As, Bs, Cs, and Ds are being set using baseline data. These cut points are anchored around a mid-C aligned with baseline data average and with an A aligned to our long-term state goals. Using historical data provides an insight into where the cut points should fall to provide realistic, yet rigorous, goals for our schools for the next five years. The cut points do not change year over year.

Does establishing cut points ensure a certain number of As, Bs, etc. in the system, i.e., a fixed distribution? No. The goal posts to earn an A are set before ratings are processed.

A fixed distribution would require an annual update to targets after the ratings data were processed to ensure only a set number of schools earned an A.

Local Accountability System

Now is the perfect time to explore the local accountability system and how your district can develop a plan using your existing priorities and data! Districts may use the 2022–23 school year to develop a plan for approval and application to 2023 accountability year or develop a plan for application to the 2023–24 school year.

Districts wishing to learn more about the local accountability system and how to develop a district local accountability plan can participate in a 45-minute overview webinar with time for Q & A.

Webinar registration links for October are below.

TFAR is a free, optional platform used by educators to create, administer, analyze, and share formative assessments. Teachers will be able to analyze the results of these formative assessments to help inform instructional choices such as making immediate lesson plan adjustments or providing specific interventions for students at the level of individual standards.

TFAR is meant to supplement and support existing LEA resources and formative assessment practices. Assessments created in TFAR should be combined with a broader set of classroom formative practices that are part of a coherent instructional framework.

Additionally, formative assessments from select, high quality instructional materials (HQIM) with an open education license will be available to administer through the same online test administration system as assessments created using TFAR. Assessments from math and RLA curricula, grades K-5, will be prioritized, and other, select curricula’s assessments will be released on a rolling basis. More information about which HQIM products’ tests will be available in the online system and the release dates of these tests will be available in the fall.

❓ How will a student qualify for a paper test?

Special Paper Administration of an Online Test Policy

Based on input from educators, the Texas English Language Proficiency Assessment System (TELPAS) reading and writing domains will be combined in an online test for students in grades 2–12 this year.

Because of this new standardized version of a writing assessment, districts will no longer need to holistically rate writing samples for students in grades 2–12.

Students in kindergarten and grade 1 will continue to be holistically rated in all four language domains—listening, speaking, reading, and writing.

Where can students and staff find practice?

Go to:

https://www.texasassessment.gov/educators.html

There is a verification process in TEAL for the SAT and ACT college preparation assessment reimbursements. This verification process has occurred in November/December in the past.

Here is past TEA communication:

TEA will release the ACT/SAT testing data to districts in TEAL for districts to review, verify and submit for reimbursement. The person responsible for this project must have Accountability-level access in TEAL. Only the Superintendent can grant this level of access in TEAL.

In the TEAL application, districts will need to review the following four categories:

• School Day – Matched: This link is an Excel file that districts may download, review and keep for record-retention. TEA assumes that if a student tested in the school day environment, the district paid for the cost of the exam at the state-negotiated rate and is eligible for reimbursement. *

• *Since the School Day – Matched students are automatically considered for reimbursement, districts whose students did take a school day assessment but did not pay for their students must opt out. This is not needed for districts that want to be reimbursed for national day students.
• 
  

• National Day – Matched: This link provides access to an application where districts SELECT the students for whom the district paid and who tested on a national testing day. Districts must ADD the 10-Digit Student ID. To be eligible for reimbursement, districts must identify students and verify the district paid for the cost of the exam.
• School Day/National Day – Unmatched: This link provides access to an application where districts SELECT the students for whom the district paid and who tested on a national or school testing day. Districts must ADD the 10-Digit Student ID. To be eligible for reimbursement, districts must identify students and verify the district paid for the cost of the exam.
• Not Represented: Any student for whom the district paid for an assessment and is not found in any of the above categories. The district will have the opportunity to submit the student for a reimbursement request while the TEAL application is open.

We are lining up many things for your secondary advanced academics needs this Fall. Please mark your calendars for the opportunities listed below and know that more details and options will be on the way. Some registration links are not yet active, but they will be soon!

The handbook does not provide the details for individual local educational agencies to seek waivers from the handbook's requirements to deal with pandemic issues. The agency, through their COVID webpage, provides those details so local educational agencies may seek adjustments to funding and access to remote learning options to deal with localized issues due to the impact of COVID-19 on normal operations.
