One Mission. One Strategy.

Recruit, support, retain teachers and principals

Build a foundation of reading and math

Connect high school to career and college

Improve low-performing schools

Strengthen organizational foundations(resource efficiency, culture, capabilities, partnerships)

Ensure compliance, effectively implement legislation and inform policymakers

Increase transparency, fairness and rigor in district andcampus academic and financial performance

Every child, prepared for success in college, a career or the military.


Theory of Action: Strategic Priority 3

and if the agency and its partners collaborate to identify the pathways that prepare for successful entry in these careers…

and for those students choosing a pathway that includes college, if the agency provides resources to ensure successful collegiate entry and completion…

and if the agency creates, supports, and incentivizes the implementation of innovative and rigorous school models and courses for these pathways…

and if the agency provides supports for families, educators, and partners to help students choose their desired pathway…

If the agency and its partners, through the work of the Tri-Agency Commission, identify current and future career opportunities in Texas…

…then the agency will empower educators to connect high school to career and college

Connect high school to career and college

Nontraditional DefinitionThe term Non-traditional Careers refers to jobs that have been traditionally filled by one gender. The US Department of Labor defines Non-traditional Occupations as occupations for which individuals from one gender comprise less than 25% of the individuals employed in each such occupation.


Nontraditional List of CTE Courses1. New courses added to the list, for

example:> Agricultural Mechanics and Metal

Technologies> Advanced courses like Advanced Piping

and Plumbing> Pathophysiology

2. Some courses removed from the list, for example:> Career Portals> Problems and Solutions> Money Matters

Statewide Evaluation of CTE (2018-2020)

Year One Complete policy and

literature review Analysis of CTE student

attainment Analysis of CTE

programs offered and students served

Establish CTE program quality metrics

Identify high-quality CTE programs

Interim report

Year Two Select LEAs for site visits Identify barriers and

facilitators for building, maintaining, adapting, and/or expanding high-quality CTE program

Final report and recommendations

Year Three Possible extension year Continuation of

longitudinal work Continued best

practices/programs highlighting


Evaluation Project Outcomes

1. TEA will have a quantified analysis of existing CTE programs across the state, as well as targeted qualitative and quantitative analysis of a subset of high-quality programs

2. TEA, public school districts, charter schools, and other stakeholders will have a better understanding of high-quality CTE programs, as measured by a sample survey of 10% of relevant educators


Evaluation Project Outcomes

1. All local education agencies (LEAs) will have their data evaluated, as applicable, from the P-20/Workforce Data Repository accessed by the Contractor.

2. The resulting published reports will be made available in August 2018 and August 2019 to 100% of stakeholders in the state.

Annual Review of CertificationsThe final list of industry-based certifications for public school accountability was adopted in 19 TAC §74.1003, with an effective date of January 3, 2018. The final list of certifications will be effective throughout the next two years (through the 2018-19 school year).

A finalized list for each upcoming school year will be available in early Spring of each year (beginning in Spring 2019). More information about the annual vetting process can be found at http://tea.texas.gov/pathways.

Performance AcknowledgementsHow does the industry certification list impact the industry certifications eligible for student performance acknowledgements in the Foundation High School Program?

TEA does not have the authority to define criteria for industry certifications eligible for student performance acknowledgements. It is the responsibility of the district to apply the definition adopted by the State Board of Education in determining what qualifies as a certification for performance acknowledgments. They may or may not include certifications on the list for accountability.


Clarifications about the ListFact• Student achievement domain included

two options for CTE: industry-based certifications and graduates who enrolled in a coherent sequence of courses.

• Current funding options will continue to be available for certification programs.

• Districts will continue to have flexibility in offering certifications for students that meet local needs. The list does not mandate the exclusion of any certifications.

Myth• This is the only way my CTE

program can be acknowledged so I’ll have to change all my programs.

• Districts will only receive funding for certifications included on the final list for accountability.

• TEA is limiting the number of certifications that districts can offer to students.


SBOE: TEKS Review & RevisionTEKS Review and Revision Changes• In June 2017, the SBOE revised the TEKS review/streamlining schedule

and instructional materials adoption cycle. • The SBOE also adopted a new process for revising/streamlining the

TEKS. One key feature of the new process is additional opportunities for public participation and input.Access the new schedule and review process on the TEA website at

https://tea.texas.gov/curriculum/teks-review/.

SBOE: Prerequisites Prerequisites for all courses can be found in the TEKS for each course

under Subsection (A), General Requirements. The words prerequisites or required prerequisites are used to indicate

when a student must meet the prerequisite in order to enroll in the course.

The words recommended prerequisites are used to indicate when the prerequisite is suggested, but not required.

The SBOE has rules that address prerequisites in 19 TAC Chapter 74.11(j) and Chapter 74.71(k).

SBOE: PrerequisitesA student may not be enrolled in a course that has a required prerequisite unless the student

• has successfully completed the prerequisite course(s);• has demonstrated equivalent knowledge as determined by the school

district; or• was already enrolled in the course in an out-of-state, an out-of-

country, or a Texas nonpublic school and transferred to a Texas public school.
