Performance Reporting

Texas Education Agency (TEA) provides annual academic accountability ratings to its public school districts and campuses. Given the impact of COVID-19, all districts and schools received a label of Not Rated: Declared State of Disaster for their 2020 and 2021 accountability ratings. 

The state accountability system measures student performance in three areas: Student Achievement, School Progress, and Closing the Gaps. Student achievement is primarily based on students met expectations on the STAAR & EOC tests. It also measures graduation rates and how prepared students are for success after high school. The school progress domain shows how students perform over time and how the school's performance compares to other schools with similar economically disadvantaged student populations. Closing the Gaps tells us how well a school or district is ensuring that all student groups are successful.

The District's 2022 A-F Ratings were released by Texas Education Agency (TEA) on August 15, 2022. Overall rating for CFBISD was B (88). Seven campuses earned an A rating and 25 campuses earned B ratings.

For a comprehensive view of their child’s school, parents are encouraged to access A-F Ratings by campuses listed below.

The Texas Education Code (TEC), §39.306, requires each school district’s Board of Trustees to publish an annual performance report that includes the TAPR report; campus performance objectives and the progress toward those objectives; district accreditation status; campus distinction designation and ratings; the district’s current special education compliance status; report on violent or criminal incidents; and information from the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board. Data and information presented within the 2021-22 District Annual Report was generated from 2021-22 Texas Academic Performance Report (TAPR) released by Texas Education Agency.

The Carrollton-Farmers Branch Independent School District held a public hearing on the Texas Academic Performance Reports (TAPR) during the regularly scheduled District Improvement Council meeting at 5:00 PM on Monday, January 23, 2023.

Prepared and released by Texas Education Agency (TEA) annually, the Texas Academic Performance Reports (TAPR) details academic performance, financial reports, and information about staff, programs, and demographics for the district and each campus.

TAPR academic performance includes information on STAAR test results and participation rates. The report disaggregates performance on state and national assessments across fourteen student groups based on race/ethnicity, socio-economic status, and program services.

Within Postsecondary Readiness, TAPR combines attendance, dropout and graduation rates, along with course completion rates for students earning advanced/dual credit, completed career and technology (CTE) coherent sequence, and Advanced Placement/International Baccalaureate (AP/IB) prior to high school graduation. Additional information on postsecondary enrollment is also provided under Postsecondary Outcomes.

Our 2021-22 Texas Academic Performance Report was released by Texas Education Agency (TEA) on December 16, 2022. 

For a comprehensive view of their child’s school, parents are encouraged to access 2021-22 TAPR information for campuses listed below.

The Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), as amended by the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), requires each State education agency to prepare and publish an annual report card with state-, district- and campus-level data. 

The Federal Report Card (FRC) was prepared and released by Texas Education Agency (TEA) annually. FRC combines information from the state’s A-F rating system, data from the Texas Academic Performance Reports (TAPR), and includes participation rates on state/national tests. Additional school and student information includes data reported to the Office of Civil Rights, Teacher Quality, Per-pupil Expenditure, Postsecondary Enrollment, and Chronic Absenteeism.

Our 2021-22 Federal Report Card was released by Texas Education Agency (TEA) on January 5, 2023.

For a comprehensive view of their child’s school, parents are encouraged to access 2021-22 FRC information for campuses listed below.

The School Report Card (SRC) is prepared and released by Texas Education Agency (TEA) annually. SRC combines accountability ratings, data from the Texas Academic Performance Reports (TAPR), and financial information to give a broad view of campus performance. Available for each campus in Texas, the SRC is intended specifically to inform parents and guardians about a school’s individual characteristics and its academic performance.

School and student information provides demographic data about the campus, including attendance rates; enrollment percentages for various student groups; student mobility rates; and class size averages at the campus, district, and state level, where applicable.

For a comprehensive view of their child’s school, parents are encouraged to access 2021-22 SRC information for campuses listed below.
