2028 A-F Refresh Public Feedback
The Texas Education Agency (TEA) is gathering public suggestions for improvement to the A-F Accountability System, for consideration of inclusion in the 2028 A-F Accountability System refresh. Suggestions can be submitted with the following link, 2028 A-F Refresh Public Feedback, posted to the Accountability System Development webpage.
2024 Discipline Data Validation
To ensure data integrity, annual data validation analyses and reviews are conducted to examine LEAs’ leaver and dropout data, student assessment data, and discipline data. When potential data anomalies are identified, steps are taken to ensure the data submitted to TEA are accurate and reliable. Statutory requirements also guide TEA’s data validation efforts.
While Performance Reporting will continue to process data for all data validation indicators, TEA’s Self-Reported Data Unit (SRDU) will now be monitoring local education agency (LEA) compliance with applicable data reporting and program requirements for the Leaver Records Data Validation (LRDV) and Discipline Data Validation (DDV) systems. If an LEA triggers one or more data validation indicators, they will not automatically be issued a compliance review this year. Instead, these LEAs are strongly encouraged to conduct a local review or audit. LEAs are encouraged to review their data and related policies and procedures to ensure that accurate data have been reported to the agency and if program implementation concerns and/or incorrect data are identified, LEAs should address those issues locally. LEAs can reference the Tips for Conducting Local Reviews – Leaver and Discipline Data document, that outlines some recommended steps and resources to help LEAs when conducting local reviews. LEAs are encouraged to work with an independent third party, such as their Education Service Center (ESC), for additional assistance conducting a local review.
A select number of LEAs that trigger one or more data validation indicators will be issued a compliance review by SRDU. Please note, the Intervention, Stage, and Activity Manager (ISAM) application will no longer be used to issue compliance reviews for DDV and LRDV. Superintendents will be notified by email in mid- to late March if their LEA is issued a compliance review.
As of February 13, 2025, LEAs may retrieve their Discipline Data Validation (DDV) report to determine if the LEA triggered any DDV indicators by logging into the Texas Education Agency Login (TEAL) portal to access the Accountability application. Reports can be found under the “Performance-Based Monitoring” tab. Leaver Records Data Validation reports were made available on February 6, 2025.
Please note, the Discipline Data Validation and Leaver Records Data Validation Manuals have been updated and provide additional details about the changes noted above. These manuals also outline the specific data validation indicators and expectations for LEAs. The updated manuals are posted on the Data Validation Manuals webpage.
