Report Location: Accountability>Federal Accountability>Texas Education for Homeless Children and Youth (TEHCY) Reports
Summary: This report evaluates multi-year STAAR 3-8 student achievement, chronic absenteeism, and adjusted cohort graduation rate trends. It specifically highlights data for “All Students” alongside a focused breakdown for “Students Experiencing Homelessness” to support targeted accountability audits and needs assessments.
Usage: Districts use this report to analyze longitudinal data across school years to track performance gaps, monitor chronic truancy, and review graduation outcomes for the vulnerable student homeless population.
Data Source(s):
- STAAR 3-8
- Summer PEIMS (Chronic Absenteeism)
- Prelim 4 Year Longitudinal Cohort (Preliminary Adjusted Cohort Graduation Rate)
Definitions:
Student Achievement Data
- All Students: All STAAR 3-8 students taking that particular subject exam who scored Masters, Meets, or Approaches
- Students Experiencing Homelessness: All STAAR 3-8 students marked homeless in PEIMS taking that particular subject exam who scored Masters, Meets, or Approaches
Chronic Absenteeism
- All Students: All students meeting the definition of chronic absenteeism
- Student At or Above 83% Membership Rate: Sum of days in membership divided by sum of the number of days taught determines which students are at or above 83%.
• Student At or Above 10% Absent Rate: Of those at 83% or above, those who were absent at least 10% of the days they were eligible to attend based on the sum of days absent divided by sum of days in membership
- Student At or Above 83% Membership Rate: Sum of days in membership divided by sum of the number of days taught determines which students are at or above 83%.
- Students Experiencing Homelessness: All students marked homeless in PEIMS meeting the definition of chronic absenteeism
Preliminary Adjusted Cohort Graduation Rate
- All Students: All students in the preliminary 4 year longitudinal cohort file
- Students Experiencing Homelessness: All students in the preliminary 4 year longitudinal cohort file who are marked homeless in PEIMS for that year
Calculations:
- Chronic Absenteeism Rate: Student At or Above 83% Membership Rate divided by Student At or Above 10% Absent Rate
- Preliminary Adjusted Cohort Graduation Rate:
- Numerator: Graduates, leaver reason E1001 = 01 across current and prior years
- Denominator: Graduates leaver reason E1001 = 01 + Dropouts leaver reason E1001 = 98 or 08 across current and prior years + the fall PEIMS subsequent year reenrollment record
- Numerator / Denominator * 100 rounded to the tenth
