Accountability
The Texas Academic Performance Report (TAPR) pulls together a wide range of information on the performance of students in each school and district in Texas every year. Performance is shown disaggregated by student groups, including ethnicity and socioeconomic status. The reports also provide extensive information on school and district staff, programs, and student demographics.
The Federal Report Card is required by the U.S. Department of Education and 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 making available Federal Report Cards to each of its campuses, the parents of all enrolled students, and the general public.
