GPA Acknowledgments
 Of the 1,224 districts evaluated for GPA, approximately
78% earned one or more, compared to 80% in 2008.
 Two districts earned all 13 district acknowledgments.
 Of the 7,650 campuses evaluated for GPA,
approximately 79% earned one or more, compared to
81% in 2008.
 No campuses earned 15 or 14 acknowledgments. Five
campuses earned 13.
10
AEA GPA
 2009 is the second year for evaluating AEA campuses and
charters on GPA indicators. Only the All Students group is
evaluated; student groups are not evaluated separately.
 There are 13 AEA GPA indicators. The two Comparable
Improvement indicators are not evaluated for AEA GPA.
 An Attendance Rate standard of 95.0% is applied to all AECs
and charters under AEA GPA.
 Among the 72 charter operators, 25 earned one or more
acknowledgments.
 Among the 448 AECs, 196 earned one or more
acknowledgments.
11
Technical Assistance Teams (TAT)
12
Technical Assistance Teams (TAT)
 For 2009-10, there are 300 unique districts with one or
more campuses on the TAT list compared to 292 unique
districts for the prior year.
 Most districts have only one campus on the list (71%).
 The most common campus type on the list is secondary
schools (high schools) with 41%.
 The 2009-10 TAT list has 538 campuses. This is a
increase of 28 campuses from the prior year.
13
TAT Campus Identification

A campus is included on the 2009-10 TAT list if the
following conditions occur:
o The
campus was rated Academically Acceptable
(under standard procedures) or AEA: Academically
Acceptable (under AEA procedures);
and
o The 2008-09 performance does not meet the 2010
for AA or AEA: AA accountability standards.
14
November 17 TEASE Release
 Lists of campuses on the TAT list were
posted to TEASE on November 17, 2009.
 Email notifications were sent to the 300
affected districts and to each ESC director.
15
Determining TAT Reasons
 The 2010 Preview Indicator on the 2008-09 Academic
Excellence Indicator System (AEIS) reports provides the
data used to determine if the campus was placed on the
2009-10 TAT List.
 The TAT lists posted on TEASE provide direct links to the
campus AEIS reports (to help locate the preview data.)
 TAT campuses that are rated under AEA procedures can
also access the 2010 preview indicator (for the AEA 2010
AEA TAKS Progress Measure) through a link from the
TEASE TAT lists.
16
TAT Methodology
 TAT analyses use 2008-09 and 2007-08 TAKS results;
Class of 2008 and Class of 2007 completion rates, and
2006-07 and 2007-08 annual dropout rates.
 For TAT determinations, TAKS performance for both years
is built to reflect the changes that will be implemented for
the TAKS base indicator in 2010. These are:
a)
b)
c)
d)
the inclusion of all TAKS (Accommodated) results;
use of the new vertical scale cut points;
use of only the first administration results for grade 3; and,
the use of TAKS (Accommodated) results for the second
administration of grades 5 and 8.
17
TAT Methodology
 Annual dropout rates and completion rates are evaluated as
they were reported in the 2008 and 2009 accountability
cycles.
 Campuses that meet the 2010 accountability standards
using the Exceptions Provision, or Required Improvement
are not included on the TAT list. (Campuses that used
exceptions in 2009 cannot use the same exceptions to
avoid TAT identification for 2009-10.)
 The Texas Projection Measure (TPM) equations used for
2009 accountability are not applied to the 2009-10 TAT
identification process.
18
Contacts
 Contact Performance Reporting at (512) 463-9704 or
[email protected] for questions
regarding TAT identification methodology.
 Contact Program Monitoring and Interventions (PMI) at
(512) 463-5226 or [email protected] for
questions regarding intervention requirements for TAT
campuses.

aligned with the state system, AYP, or the TAT list.
 Statute requires districts to notify parents of the
2010-11 list by February 1, 2010.

performance, but is effective for the 2010-2011 school
year.

2010 AEA Campus Registration Process,
Registered AEC List, and
AEA At-Risk Registration Criterion
37
2010 AEA Campus Registration Process

The 2010 AEA campus registration process was
conducted online using the TEASE Accountability
website.

The 2010 AEA campus registration process was open
September 9-23.

By September 28, 2009, response emails were sent to
campuses that submitted rescission and/or registration
forms. All 2010 AEA campus registration forms
submitted were approved.
38
2010 Registered AEC List

The 2010 Registered AEC List is available on the AEA
website at http://www.tea.state.tx.us/aea.
39
2010 AEA At-Risk Registration Criterion

Each registered AEC must have at least 75% at-risk student
enrollment or be eligible to use either the Prior-Year PEIMS
At-Risk Data or New Campus safeguard to be evaluated
under 2010 AEA procedures and receive an AEA rating on
July 30, 2010. At-risk enrollment is verified through
2009-10 PEIMS fall enrollment data.

In April after the at-risk registration criterion is applied, the
Final 2010 Registered AEC List will be developed and
posted on the AEA website in May 2010. This list will
contain the AECs that will receive a 2010 AEA rating.

After the Final 2010 Registered AEC List is developed, the
list of charter operators that will be rated under 2010 AEA
procedures will be posted on the AEA website in May 2010.
