Overview
•
•
The Texas Student Data System is a project by TEA designed to provide educators with actionable, timely
data to improve student performance while easing the burden of data collection on districts. The
dashboards are built to help you to access real‐time data on your students—without requiring you to
entire new data!
The project has three goals:
1. Enhance performance management capabilities through the creation of academic dashboards and
early warning systems that will, for example, help determine which students are at risk of dropping
out and recommend intervention strategies;
2. Alleviate the data collection burden on school districts and improve data quality; and
3. Integrate key data into the Texas Education Agency (TEA) P–20 data warehouse, the Texas P–16 Public
Education Information Resource (TPEIR), to better understand students’ preparedness to contribute
to the 21st‐century workforce.

The StudentGPS dashboards include the
following functionality:
• StudentGPS is a component of TSDS that
allows teachers, campus administrators,
and district personnel to use and analyze
student data.
• The dashboards pull from multiple
demographic, assessment, and behavior
data sets to put all information in one
place. (Reference the slide for specific
examples of data included in the
dashboards.)
• Student data will roll up into classroom,
campus, and district data, which may be
viewed based on your role.
• You will only be able to see data for the
students for whom you have academic
responsibility. As teachers, this will include
students in your class. Campus
administrators will be able to see data for
all students and teachers.
