What are alternative education campuses (AECs)?
AECs, including charter school AECs, must serve students at risk of dropping out of school as defined in TEC §29.081(d) and provide accelerated instructional services to these students. Accountability ratings for AECs and charter schools are assigned similarly to non-AEA districts and campuses but modified and alternative procedures applicable to STAAR, graduation rate and annual dropout rate calculation are provided. For more information, please refer to 2023 Accountability Manual. |
