BIE Federal Reporting

Tool Search: BIE Federal Reporting

The BIE Federal Reporting tool supports the BIE's accountability system that identifies schools that could benefit from additional support and interventions. Every three years the BIE will assess and rank a school's accountability standing based on the following indicators:

  • Academic Achievement - proficiency on statewide Math and English Language Arts (ELA) Assessments
  • Other Academic Indicator - proficiency on statewide Science Assessment
  • English Learner Progress - only applies to schools with 10 or more English Learners
  • Four-Year Cohort Graduation Rate
  • SQSS (School Quality or Student Success) Chronic Absenteeism

The BIE Federal Reporting tool is available in both District Edition and NASIS State Edition sites.
