TEA Update on NCLB Waiver

TEA Update on NCLB Waiver

Last week TEA posted correspondence to its web site explaining general NCLB program changes, revised highly qualified (HQ) teacher data reporting requirements, and "the new basis for evaluating accountability, replacing the prior Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) provision."

Other recent Agency updates include the posting of correspondence to solicit STAAR Alternate pilot participants at http://www.tea.state.tx.us/student.assessment/correspondence/ and information about linguistic accommodations for ELLs taking the STAAR tests at: http://www.tea.state.tx.us/student.assessment/accommodations/
