Important TSDS PEIMS Resubmission Deadline – July 18, 2024

On Thursday, June 20, 2024, the agency released a TAA announcing the PEIMS Summer deadline for CCMR in 2025 Accountability. LEAs have until July 18, 2024, to verify and submit corrected data for errors found in the initial June 20, 2024, submission. Please note that any corrections not submitted by the resubmission deadline are excluded from important accountability products.  It is extremely important that all LEAs verify their data directly in TSDS PEIMS even if the data appears to be accurate in their SIS.

As a reminder, the Summer Submission includes data that are used for several of the CCMR indicators, such as Dual Credit, IBCs, and College Prep Courses. Because CCMR uses lagging data, the data submitted this summer (2024) will impact the calculations for the 2025 accountability reports. The Academic Accountability Data Sources (texas.gov) provides a list of the PEIMS elements and values for each indicator along with the PEIMS reports LEAs can use to verify the information prior to submission and during the correction window.

For example, the TSDS PEIMS PDM report “Student: Student Advanced Academic Roster by Grade” (PDM3-120-010) provides information about student IBC status. It is extremely important that all LEAs verify their data directly in TSDS PEIMS even if the data appears to be accurate in their SIS. LEAs have until July 18, 2024, to submit corrected data for errors found in the initial June 20, 2024, submission through the PEIMS Summer Resubmission process.

Please note: After the correction window closes, the accepted PEIMS submission are the data used for the CCMR indicators for 2025 accountability. The CCMR data collected during the PEIMS Summer Submission and Resubmission cannot be corrected through the CCMR Verifier process in the following spring or summer. For more information, please contact a PEIMS specialist at your ESC or the TEA Performance Reporting Division at performance.reporting@tea.texas.gov or 512-463-9704.

PEIMS and Accountability FAQ

What happens if a data error is found after the initial submission of Summer PEIMS?

If a data error is found during the submission process, including after the initial submission, the LEA must make corrections within their SIS and resubmit the information to TEA by the resubmission deadline which is July 18, 2024, for this year. The LEA should work with their SIS if the LEA determines the error is based on an issue with the system and not with the data the LEA has entered.

If the LEA cannot determine the cause of the error, the LEA should work with their ESC PEIMS Coordinator, and if needed submit a TIMS Ticket for customer support assistance. The LEA should begin promoting their PEIMS data as early as they can to determine and correct any errors. The LEA, not the SIS, is ultimately responsible for the accuracy of data submitted by the resubmission deadline.

This document provides the STAAR raw scores and scale scores associated with the calculation of School Progress, Part A: Academic Growth. 

• Annual Growth indicates the amount of improvement or growth a student has made from year to year. For STAAR assessments (with or without accommodations), annual growth is measured by a transition table.
• Accelerated Learning is measured for students who earned Did Not Meet Grade Level in the prior year and were accelerated to Approaches Grade Level or above in the current year.

For more information see Chapter 3 of the 2024 Accountability Manual.

This information also assists districts with decisions for accelerated instruction in alignment with HB 1416.

FAQ

Students who fall into the “Low Does Not Meet” category of STAAR performance are required to receive no less than 30 hours of supplemental instruction. Incoming fourth-grade students who do not approach grade level or higher on a grade 3 STAAR are required to receive 30 hours of supplemental instruction.

Districts may also use the district student-level assessment data files to make intervention determinations. Districts can view the STAAR Low Does Not Meet/High Does Not Meet tables on the 2024 Accountability Rating Systems webpage.
