For more information, see the Highlights of the 2019 Accountability System Ratings In 2018, the state academic accountability system underwent an overhaul under House Bill (HB) 22 (85th Texas Legislature, Regular Session, 2017). HB 22 established three domains of indicators to evaluate the academic performance of distrA, B,ic ts,C, Dopen-enroF llment charter schools, and campuses: Student Achievement, School Progress, and Closing the Gaps. HB 22 requires the commissioner to assign districts and campuses a rating of , or for overall performance, as well as for performance in each domain. Overview of the 2019 Accountability System StudentThe overall Achi designevement of the accountability system evaluates performance according to three domains: evaluates performance across all subjects for all students, on both general and alternate assessments, College, Career, and Military Readiness (CCMR) indicators, and Schgraduationool Progress rates. measures district and campus outcomes in two areas: the number of students that grew at least one year academically (or are on track) as measured by STAAR results and the achievement of all students relative to districts or campuses with similar economically disClosingadvantaged the Gaps percentages. uses disaggregated data to demonstrate differentials among racial/ethnic groups, socioeconomic backgrounds and other factors. The indicators included in this domain, as well as the domain’s construction, align the state accountability system with the federal Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA). The State of Texas More than �ive million students were enrolled in Texas public schools in the 2018–19 school year, and they took nearly nine million STAAR assessments in reading, mathematics, writing, science, and social studies. Of all assessments taken, 78 percent met the Approaches Grade Level standard or above, 50 percent met the Meets Grade Level standard or above, and 24 percent met the Masters Grade Level standard. Of the 335,500 2018 annual graduates evaluated in accountability, 65 percent met the criteria for one or more College, Career, and Military Readiness indicators. Statewide, the 2018 4-year graduation rate for all students was 90.0 percent.
