Understanding Consecutive Unacceptable Counts in Accountability and Requirements for School Improvement
Join TEA accountability and school improvement experts on October 29 from 10:00-11:30 a.m. CT to learn how consecutive unacceptable counts are calculated, how accountability ratings influence school improvement requirements, and what pathways exist for returning to acceptable performance. Participants will gain a clearer understanding of accountability expectations, key school improvement requirements, and important timelines and deadlines associated with required interventions.
Please note: Participants must have a valid Zoom account to register.
Reminder: PEIMS Fall Snapshot Date is October 30
The 2026–27 PEIMS Fall Snapshot date is Friday, October 30, 2026. The Fall Submission reflects students enrolled, staff employed, and current school-year budget data as of the snapshot date. Accurate Fall Snapshot data is important for accountability. For 2027 accountability, Fall PEIMS data is used to determine the accountability subset, campus school type, and each campus’s proportional weight in district accountability ratings.
School systems are encouraged to work with their PEIMS, accountability, and district leadership teams to ensure Fall Snapshot data is accurate. The PEIMS Fall Submission is due December 10, 2026. For an overview of accountability data and sources, common pitfalls in data reporting, and critical PEIMS reports to review to support accurate data submission reference the Best Practices for the Fall Submission Webinar recording.

Analytic Tool: IBC Analytic Tool Now Available
The IBC Analytic Tool is now available, providing enhanced access to certification attainment data, including analysis of certifications earned and Industry-Based Certification tiers. Stakeholders can filter by region, district and campus, as well as student demographics. The IBC Analytic Tool reports all Industry-Based Certifications (IBC) earned by the Class of 2025 annual graduates, regardless of the graduates’ CTE status. The counts of IBCs earned, as shown in this report, may differ from the IBCs that count for CCMR credit in accountability, as shown in the 2026 CCMR accountability report. This difference is because IBCs only count for CCMR credit in 2026 accountability if a graduate is a Concentrator or Completer in an aligned program of study.
 As a reminder, TPRS now contains data related to IBC Tiers. In the CCMR Report, under the Career Ready Graduates section, stakeholders may review the percentages of 2025 annual graduates who earned an approved Tier 1, Tier 2, or Tier 3 IBC and Concentrator or higher in an aligned program of study. Please note that TPRS does not include data corrected through PEIMS Working Submissions used in accountability reports and calculations. Please refer to the TPRS Glossary for additional details and methodology related to this data.
2025 Snapshot Report Now Available
The tool is now available and provides a comprehensive, easy-to-use overview of state, region, and district performance, staffing, finances, and demographics. The report brings together key information on membership, attendance, dropout and graduation rates, STAAR performance, staff demographics, and financial indicators.
The tool also features Peer Search, which allows users to compare districts with similar community types, enrollment sizes, property wealth, and tax rates. The Snapshot Report includes lagging data, as the report includes U.S. Census data, which is released later in the year.
Accountability Training Resources Webpage Now Available
The Accountability Training Resources webpage serves as a centralized location for accountability training materials and presentations developed by Performance Reporting. The page provides access to recorded webinars, slide decks, guidance documents, tools, and other resources designed to support educators and administrators in understanding accountability processes, reporting products, methodologies, and data sources. LEAs are encouraged to bookmark this page and check regularly for new training opportunities and updates as additional accountability resources become available.
Improve Performance Reporting Processes and Products
Many of the tools shared in recent bulletins were created and shared based on the feedback received from stakeholders across Texas. As we work to better serve our stakeholders, if you have suggested enhancements to existing products or processes or new tools that would better meet your needs, please share your ideas through our survey, Suggested Enhancements to Performance Reporting's Products and Processes.
