The
Texas Education Agency announced Tuesday that all eligible Cy-Fair ISD schools received the “Met Standard” designation for 2016-17 in the state’s accountability system for the fifth consecutive year.
To receive this designation—the highest rating possible—campuses must meet the applicable Index target on Index 1 or 2 and Index 3 and 4.
- Index 1: Student Achievement: Measures how many students passed the STAAR at the current passing standard
- Index 2: Student Progress: Measures how many students made progress from 2015 to 2016
- Index 3: Closing Performance Gaps: Measures the progress of students in the economically disadvantaged student group along with the two lowest-performing student groups from the previous year
- Index 4: Postsecondary Readiness: Measures how many students passed the STAAR at the final recommended standard on two or more tests (all levels) and graduation rate, graduation diploma plan and a postsecondary component (high schools only).
“High expectations, believing all students can be successful and doing whatever it takes to help student[s] achieve is the attitude you find at all of our campuses,” said Linda Macias, CFISD associate superintendent of curriculum & instruction and accountability. “Our campus administrators, teachers and district team are committed to providing our students with quality instruction, monitoring their success and offering support when needed. Our schools have once again achieved the ‘Met Standard’ rating and reached the target for all four indices that are a part of the state accountability system. I’m very proud of the work they do.”
