PEIMS Summer Submission Due June 20, 2025

LEAs are strongly encouraged to utilize available TSDS PEIMS reports to ensure the accuracy of the data in PEIMS which are the data used for accountability purposes. 

To assist LEAs with data verification for the upcoming PEIMS Summer Submission, the 2024-25 Academic Accountability Data Sources / PEIMS Summer Submission document available on the Performance Reporting Resources webpage, provides a side-by-side comparison of data sources for selected indicators impacted by updates to TSDS PEIMS for the 2024-25 school year. As always, the 2024-25 Texas Education Data Standards via TWEDS is the definitive source for PEIMS information.

Key TSDS PEIMS Reports for Summer Submission

TSDS PEIMS Reports provide information that allows data submitters to find errors and inconsistencies in the data submitted to TEA. LEAs are strongly encouraged to review the following TSDS PEIMS reports that are especially relevant to accountability. These reports may be run as data are loaded and should be run again following completion of data upload to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the data.

• PDM3-120-008 Students with Dual Credit Courses and College Credit Hours
• PDM3-120-010 Student Advanced Academic Roster by Grade
• PDM3-120-019 Industry-Based Certification Roster
• PDM3-133-001 Number of Students Completing Courses by Pass/Fail Indicator
• PDM3-133-002 Students Completing Courses with Dual/Advanced Technical Credit

LEA verification of PEIMS data prior to the final submission is an essential step that helps both the district, and the local system vendor ensure the data entered accurately reflects LEA performance. As a reminder, LEAs, not their information system vendors, are ultimately responsible for the accuracy of the data submitted to PEIMS. Data submitted through working collections are not used for accountability purposes. 

For additional information or assistance, please contact your supporting Education Service Center (ESC) or TEA by accessing the TSDS Incident Management System (TIMS).

2025 College Career and Military Readiness (CCMR) Verifier Closes June 20, 2025

The CCMR Verifier, available in the TEA Login (TEAL) Accountability application, will close at 11:59 pm on Friday June 20, 2025. Following the closure of the verification window, districts may continue to monitor each change request and view final decision, when available, for each change request by following “Status of Requested Changes” link in the District Resources section of the CCMR Verifier.   

The CCMR Verifier provides districts an opportunity to verify the accuracy of their CCMR data and, if needed, submit official documentation to correct non-PEIMS data. LEAs can monitor the status of requested changes during Verification window and provide further documentation as described in the 2025 CCMR Verifier Data Requirements document if needed. 

CCMR indicators determined by TSDS PEIMS submissions are not eligible for corrections and will not be shown. The CCMR Verifier will contain data for 2023-24 annual graduates and non-graduating 12^th graders. Additionally, LEA’s can access their Preliminary 2025 CCMR Student Listing from the CCMR Verifier.

The 2025 CCMR Verifier Data Requirements document and 2025 CCMR Verifier One-Pager are available on the Performance Reporting Resources under the CCMR tab.

More information is available in TAA: College, Career, and Military Readiness (CCMR) Verifier published on May 29, 2025.

2025 Campus Comparison Groups Published June 12, 2025 

The 2025 Campus Comparison Groups are available on the 2025 Accountability Rating System webpage. Each Texas campus is identified by school type, then assigned to a unique comparison group made up of 40 other campuses that are most similar to it.

These groups are determined based on several factors including grade levels served, campus size, percentage of economically disadvantaged students, mobility rate, percentage of emergent bilingual students, percentage of students receiving special education services, and percentage of students enrolled in an Early College High School program. Campuses within a comparison group may be located anywhere across the state, ensuring a fair and comprehensive basis for evaluating performance.

An explanation of the grouping methodology can be found in Appendix E of the 2025 Accountability Ratings Manual, with additional information in Chapter 6 regarding the use of comparison groups for Distinction Designations.

The preliminary assessment reports for accountability for the 2025 State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness (STAAR®) Alternate 2 administration are now available. Preliminary assessment reports serve as an initial indicator of district and campus accountability ratings. These reports should be used to identify data that needs to be corrected during the data correction window. Assessment results included in the preliminary reports are the same results included in the final reports for accountability unless changes are made during the data correction window.

District Reports

Your district’s 2025 STAAR Alternate 2 preliminary assessment reports for accountability are posted in the Secure File Center for the district testing coordinator. These preliminary assessment reports include student report cards, student labels, district and campus summary reports, and reporting data files. Reports posted in the Secure File Center are available for one year.

The 2025 STAAR Alternate 2 preliminary assessment results for accountability will be posted to the Family and Research portals by June 24, 2025.

Data Corrections

The data correction window for the 2025 STAAR Alternate 2 administration is June 20 through June 25, 2025, and is an opportunity for district testing coordinators to make corrections to data reported in the preliminary results. District testing coordinators must resolve test discrepancies and temporary TSDS IDs for this administration during the correction window.
