Accountability Rating

The 85th Texas Legislature passed House Bill (HB) 22, establishing three domains for measuring the academic performance of districts and campuses: 
Student Achievement, School Progress, and Closing the Gaps.
This year, districts received a rating of A, B, C, D, or F for overall performance, as well as for performance in each domain. Individual campuses will receive A–F ratings beginning in August 2019.  The Texas Education Agency (TEA) has released results of the latest version of State Accountability.

For more information on the new rating system, visit TEA website: A-F Accountability Resources.
In 2022, CHISD received an accountability A-F rating of an B (85) and "Met Standard".

Federal Report Card

The U.S. Department of Education requires each state to publish an annual report card with specific district- and campus-level data. 

Every district that receives Title I, Part A funding is responsible for distributing the state-, district- and campus-level report cards to each of its campuses, the parents of all enrolled students, and the general public.

ESSA (Every Student Succeeds Act)

The Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) was signed by President Obama on December 10, 2015, and represents good news for our nation’s schools. This bipartisan measure reauthorizes the 50-year-old Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), the nation’s national education law and longstanding commitment to equal opportunity for all students.

The new law builds on key areas of progress in recent years, made possible by the efforts of educators, communities, parents, and students across the country.

ESSA includes provisions that will help to ensure success for students and schools. Below are just a few. The law:

  • Advances equity by upholding critical protections for America's disadvantaged and high-need students.

  • Requires—for the first time—that all students in America be taught to high academic standards that will prepare them to succeed in college and careers.

  • Ensures that vital information is provided to educators, families, students, and communities through annual statewide assessments that measure students' progress toward those high standards.

  • Helps to support and grow local innovations—including evidence-based and place-based interventions developed by local leaders and educators—consistent with our Investing in Innovation and Promise Neighborhoods

  • Sustains and expands this administration's historic investments in increasing access to high-quality preschool.

  • Maintains an expectation that there will be accountability and action to effect positive change in our lowest-performing schools, where groups of students are not making progress, and where graduation rates are low over extended periods of time.
