Section 61.1021 - School Report Cards

(a) The campus report card disseminated by the Texas Education Agency (TEA) under the Texas Education Code, § 39.305, shall be termed the "school" report card (SRC).

(b) The intent of the SRC is to inform each student's parents or guardians about the school's performance and characteristics. Where possible, the SRC will present the school information in relation to the district, the state, and a comparable group of schools. The SRC will present the student, staff, financial, and performance information required by statute, as well as any explanations and additional information deemed appropriate to the intent of the report.

(c) The SRC must be disseminated within six weeks after it is received from TEA.

(d) The campus administration may provide the SRC in the same manner it would normally transmit official communications to parents and guardians, such as: including the SRC in a weekly folder sent home with each student, mailing it to the student's residence, providing it at a teacher-parent conference, enclosing it with the student report card, or sending it via electronic mail.

(e) The school may not alter the report provided by TEA; however, it may concurrently provide additional information to the parents or guardians that supplements or explains information in the SRC.
