Student Demographic Listing and Test Information Distribution Engine (TIDE) Training
Join us for an upcoming webinar on March 26th, 2026, at 9:30 am, focused on a new Student Demographic Listing and the Test Information Distribution Engine (TIDE), designed to support districts and campuses in ensuring accurate data for accountability and assessment. During this session, we’ll walk through how to interpret the Student Demographic Listing, explain how demographic information flows from PEIMS into TIDE, how to verify or change the information in TIDE, and discuss why TIDE is a critical source for accountability calculations. We’ll also highlight common data issues across both systems that can impact accountability outcomes. Participants will leave with a clearer understanding of how to use these tools together to review, validate, and align student demographic data ahead of key reporting and assessment milestones. Register today!

College, Career, and Military Readiness for 2031 Accountability Webinar
Join us for an upcoming webinar focused on College, Career, and Military Readiness (CCMR) for 2031 Accountability. During the webinar, TEA staff will share current analyses and proposed frameworks that inform how CCMR will be evaluated in the 2031 accountability system, with a particular focus on aligning indicators to meaningful post-secondary outcomes.
Topics to be covered include:
- Correlation data for CCMR indicators and postsecondary outcomes, including how indicators are being studied to better understand their relationship to successful postsecondary enrollment, persistence, and completion.
- A proposed framework for differential weighting of CCMR indicators, highlighting how varying levels of postsecondary impact may be reflected in future accountability calculations.

College, Career, and Military Readiness (CCMR) Tracker Coming Soon
The CCMR Tracker (Part I) will be available in the Texas Education Agency Login (TEAL) Accountability application on April 2, 2026. The College, Career, and Military Readiness (CCMR) Tracker is an informational tool that allows districts to monitor CCMR indicator completion for students reported as enrolled in grades 9–12 on the TSDS Fall PEIMS snapshot, as well as select prior‑year annual graduates. The tracker will display student‑level CCMR indicators using data available to the agency at the time of release and is intended to provide an early preview of data that may be used in accountability calculations. Additional information and guidance will be shared upon release.
2025 TELPAS Composite Data Coming Soon
Beginning with 2026 accountability, TELPAS Composite scores will once again be used in the Domain 3 English Language Proficiency component. To support districts in understanding the campus-level baseline data that will be used for ratings, TEA will make each district’s unmasked 2025 TELPAS Composite scores by campus available for download in TEAL on March 19, 2026. This listing is provided for informational purposes only and reflects the data that will serve as the prior-year baseline for 2026 accountability calculations.
Updated 2028 A–F Accountability Framework Coming Soon
TEA will soon release an updated 2028 A–F Accountability System Framework that reflects statutory requirements, stakeholder feedback, and additional technical refinements. The updated framework is intended to preview anticipated changes that will be incorporated into the 2028 Accountability Rating System Manual, which is expected to be available in early summer 2026.
Resources related to the updated framework, including an overview of proposed changes and supporting technical documentation, will be posted on the Accountability System Development webpage in the coming weeks. Additional details will be shared through future communications.
Alternative Education Accountability Registration
The AEA registration process is open in the Texas Education Agency Login (TEAL) Accountability application and will remain open through 5 pm on March 17, 2026. In order for a campus to be identified for AEA in 2026, all of the following criteria must be met:
- Meet either the current-year or prior-year TSDS PEIMS 75 percent at-risk criterion
- Have at least 90 percent of students enrolled in grades 6–12, as verified through 2025-26 PEIMS fall enrollment data
- Be identified as offering alternative instruction in AskTED
- Provide education services targeted to dropout prevention and recovery of students with enrollment consisting of at least 60 percent of the students 16 years of age or older as of September 1, 2025
Campuses that meet the criteria have been preregistered as dropout recovery schools (DRS). The preregistered campuses in each district are now available in the Texas Education Agency Login (TEAL) Accountability application. Districts may choose to remove a preregistered campus from AEA by submitting an AEA rescission form via TEAL Accountability. No action is required if a campus within your district is preregistered as a DRS and you wish to keep it registered for AEA. For additional information on AEA methodology, refer to the AEA At a Glance resource and the To the Administrator Addressed Correspondence on 2026 Alternative Education Accountability Registration for additional information on the AEA registration process.
Final 2026 Accelerated Testers Student Listings released in TEAL
The Final 2026 Accelerated Testers Student Listings is available in the Texas Education Agency Login (TEAL) Accountability application. This year, there are two listings available to stakeholders: the Final 2026 Accelerated Student Listing, which includes students reported as 12th graders on the PEIMS Fall Snapshot, and a new listing, the Accelerated Testing Listing for Students in Grades 9-11, which is intended to support schools and school systems in planning for SAT/ACT testing for future accountability cycles.
These listings identify students who earned Approaches Grade Level or above on the Algebra I, English II, and/or Biology STAAR EOC assessments prior to grade 9 and are used to support federal testing requirements for accountability purposes. Both listings reflect each accelerated student’s applicable subject area(s) and indicate whether a corresponding SAT or ACT result is on record as of May 2025 (2024–25, 2023– 24, and 2022–23 school years). Only students in grade 12, who are listed in the Final 2026 Accelerated Student Listing, will be included in 2026 accountability calculations. For additional information, please reference the To the Administrator Addressed Correspondence on Final 2026 Accelerated Testers Student Listings.
2026 Campus 3-12 Enrollment (In Membership) List
The 2026 Campus 3-12 Enrollment (In Membership) List is available on the 2026 Accountability Rating System webpage. This list reflects campus-level membership counts for students in grades 3-12 and economically disadvantaged rates. This list reflects data from the Fall PEIMS Submission and is used in accountability calculations, including district proportional weighting. Districts and campuses are encouraged to review the list once posted and retain a local copy for reference.
Student Demographic Listing
A new student listing is available in the Texas Education Agency Login (TEAL) Accountability application. This new student listing, created based on feedback from our stakeholders, contains all students and their demographic information, as reported in the 2025 Fall PEIMS Submission. The purpose of this listing is to support schools and school systems in clarifying who is in their accountability subset and to ensure consistency across PEIMS and TIDE. We hope you can join us at the PEIMS Demographic Listing and Test Information Distribution Engine (TIDE) Training on March 26, 2026, to learn more about this student listing and how it can be used in your context. You may also reference the 2026 PEIMS student demographic listing explanation of methodology and sources document posted on the Performance Reporting Resources webpage.
