| TX | Adopted 09/2005 | P-12 | From background information: Proposed amendment to 19 TAC §97.1001 would describe the state accountability rating system and adopt excerpts of the 2005 Accountability Manual, dated June 2005, into rule. The excerpts, Chapters 2-6, 9, 11-13, 16, and 17 of the 2005 Accountability Manual, specify the indicators, standards, and procedures used by the commissioner of education to determine accountability ratings, both standard and alternative education accountability (AEA), for districts, campuses, and charter schools. These chapters also specify indicators, standards, and procedures used to determine Gold Performance Acknowledgment (GPA) on additional indicators for Texas public school districts and campuses. Also specified in Chapters 2-6, 9, 11-13, 16, and 17 of the 2005 Accountability Manual are procedures for submitting an appeal. The TEA will issue accountability ratings under the procedures specified in the 2005 Accountability Manual in August 2005. Ratings may be revised as a result of investigative activities by the commissioner as authorized under TEC, §39.074 and §39.075. The title of §97.1001 would also change from "Annual Accountability Standards" to "Accountability Rating System."
In 2005, campuses and districts will be evaluated using four base indicators: Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) results, completion rates, annual dropout rates, and student performance on the State Developed Alternative Assessment (SDAA) II. In 2005, the GPA system will award acknowledgment on 13 separate indicators to districts and campuses rated Academically Acceptable or higher: Attendance Rate for Grades 1-12; Advanced Academic Course Completion; Advanced Placement/ International Baccalaureate Examination Results; College Admissions Test Results; Commended Performance on Reading/English Language Arts (ELA), Mathematics, Writing, Science and/or Social Studies; TAAS/TASP Equivalency; Recommended High School Program Participation; and Comparable Improvement on Reading/ELA and Mathematics.Amends rules concerning institutional reports. Accommodates the accountability system reports that will be presented to the Board at its January meeting. Changes the submission date to November 15.

| TX | Adopted 09/2005 | P-12 | BACKGROUND INFORMATION AND SIGNIFICANT ISSUES: Legal counsel with the Texas Education Agency (TEA) has recommended that the procedures for issuing accountability ratings for public school districts and campuses be adopted as part of the Texas Administrative Code. This decision was made in 2000 given a court decision challenging state agency decision making via administrative letter/publications. Given the statewide application of the accountability rating process and the existence of sufficient statutory authority for the commissioner of education to formally adopt rules in this area, portions of each annual accountability manual have been adopted since 2000. The accountability system evolves from year to year so the criteria and standards for rating and acknowledging schools in the most current year differ to some degree over those applied in the prior year. The intention is to annually update 19 TAC §97.1001 to refer to the most recently published accountability manual.
The proposed amendment to 19 TAC §97.1001 would describe the state accountability rating system and adopt excerpts of the 2005 Accountability Manual, dated June 2005, into rule. The excerpts, Chapters 2-6, 9, 11-13, 16, and 17 of the 2005 Accountability Manual, specify the indicators, standards, and procedures used by the commissioner of education to determine accountability ratings, both standard and alternative education accountability (AEA), for districts, campuses, and charter schools. These chapters also specify indicators, standards, and procedures used to determine Gold Performance Acknowledgment (GPA) on additional indicators for Texas public school districts and campuses. Also specified in Chapters 2-6, 9, 11-13, 16, and 17 of the 2005 Accountability Manual are procedures for submitting an appeal. The TEA will issue accountability ratings under the procedures specified in the 2005 Accountability Manual in August 2005. Ratings may be revised as a result of investigative activities by the commissioner as authorized under TEC, §39.074 and §39.075. The title of §97.1001 would also change from "Annual Accountability Standards" to "Accountability Rating System."

| CO | Vetoed 06/2005 | P-12 | Requires the department to contract every 3 years for an independent evaluation of the state accountability system and the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001. Requires the evaluation to include:
(1) The impact of the accountability systems on learning and teaching;
(2) Public perception of and confidence in the accountability sytems;
(3) The effectiveness of the parties involved in the accountability systems, including the department, districts, state charter school institute, and public schools;
(4) Improvements that may be made to the data collected through the accountability systems; and
(5) Recommended changes to statutes or rules pertaining to the accountability systems.
Requires the report to include an evaluation of the state acceditation indicators and how districts or the state charter school institute can meet or fail to meet such standards.
Changes the school designations in the state accountability system from "excellent", "high", "average", "low" and "unsatisfactory" to "excellent", "high achieving", "achieving", "priority" and "high priority". Requires the state board to develop procedures for a district or the state charter school institute to appeal or waive a school's rating based upon unusual testing circumstances.

| CO | Vetoed 06/2005 | P-12 | Section 7: Encourages the state board to establish accreditation indicators based in part on the diagnostic academic growth calculation added by paragraph (d), section 22-7-604.3.
Section 8: Creates new paragraph (d) in section 22-7-604.3. States that a diagnostic academic growth calculation showing each student's improvement from year to year might more accurately reflect a school's performance. Encourages the department to extend the use of the diagnostic academic growth calculation to the school level, and to use this method to evaluate schools for the state and federal accountability systems.
