Report Location: Accountability Lead4ward
Usage: This guide explains how campus and district leaders can use OnDataSuite to generate a STAAR-only version of the lead4ward Leadership Report Card (LRC). The LRC provides a concise, data-informed summary to guide instructional leadership decisions, leveraging key performance metrics to identify strengths, areas of concern, and student group trends.
The lead4ward LRC is designed to:
- Identify performance trends over time
- Highlight gaps among student groups
- Support strategic planning and targeted interventions
- Build shared understanding of assessment results across leadership teams
When using STAAR-only data, the focus remains on core accountability-tested content areas: Reading/ELA, Math, Science, and Social Studies.
Data Sources – PEIMS Summer Records, STAAR Data
Filters: There are three sets for STAAR, for different years. The right-most checkpoint will update the other checkpoints. Locks help ensure the Teks stay aligned across grade levels, etc.
Checkpoints: Designated points in time (e.g., beginning, middle, end of the year) used to compare student performance across assessments in this case, STAAR, across several years.
Three checkpoints include:
- Subject
- Grade
- Campuses
- Ethnicity
Special Notes: Teks Cluster Analysis is hyperlinked to the detailed information.
TEKS Cluster Analysis: A grouping of related Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) standards to analyze student performance in specific content areas.
