Summary:This report calculates the number of students had a non-mobile rate of 83% or greater, as well as the number of those students who had an absentee rate of 10% or greater.
This report may or may not match reports produced by TEA. Most often we cannot re-produce how TEA performs their calculations. Additionally TEA frequently modifies the data subset used to pull the information.
Usage: Review prior year and current year absenteeism rates for Domain IV.
Data Sources: This report uses data from the Summer PEIMS files.
• Step 1: Using days in membership divided by days taught, determine by student those who are at or above 83%.
• Step 2: Of those at 83% or above, what percentage were absent at least 10% of the days they were eligible to attend.
• Step 3: Subtract the product of step 2 from 100 and calculate rate for campuses and districts.
Days in membership are a TEA-calculated sum of the number of days present (eligible and ineligible) and the number of days absent during a particular reporting period.
DAYS_MEMBER = DAYS_PRESENT + DAYS_ABSENT
Days present is a TEA-calculated sum of the number of ineligible days present and the number of eligible days present during a particular reporting period.
DAYS_PRESENT = DAYS_INELIG + DAYS_ELIG
Days taught is PEIMS element 0935,
Days absent is PEIMS element 0036
Days eligible is PEIMS element 0937.
Days ineligible is PEIMS element 0936.
