Evaluation criteria
Student achievement is measured by performance on the State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness, graduation rates, and college, career or military readiness.
School progress is measured on academic growth and performance relative to other districts with similar levels of economically disadvantaged student populations.
The final criteria, closing the gaps, measures how well a district is meeting the needs of all student groups.
