What is the Academic Excellence Indicator System?
...
The
Academic Excellence
Indicator System (AEIS) pulls together a wide range of
information on the performance of students in each
school and district in Texas every year. This
information is put into the annual AEIS reports, which
are available each year in the fall. The performance
indicators are:
-
State-administered
assessment performance; by grade, by subject, and by
all grades tested;
-
State Developed
Alternative Assessment (SDAA) performance;
-
Progress of Prior Year
TAKS Failers;
-
Student Success
Initiative;
-
Reading Proficiency
Tests in English (RPTE);
-
Attendance rate for
the full year;
-
Dropout rate (by
year);
-
Completion and dropout
rates (4-year longitudinal);
-
Percent of high school
students completing an advanced course;
-
Percent of graduates
completing the Recommended High School Program or
Distinguished Achievement Program;
-
Advanced Placement
(AP) and International Baccalaureate (IB)
examination results;
-
TAAS / TASP
equivalency rate;
-
College Readiness
(Texas Success Initiative); and
-
SAT and ACT
examination -- participation and results.
Performance on each of
these indicators is shown disaggregated by ethnicity,
sex, special education, low income status, and,
beginning in 2002-03, limited English proficient status.
The reports also provide extensive information on school
and district staff, finances, programs and demographics.
