It’s time for a change Here’s what most teachers know about a new student in their classroom.

It’s time for a change Here’s what most PEIMS coordinators face at submission time

Data Collection and Information Sharing Today – Room for Improvement Districts spend significant time providing data to TEA for PEIMS$ Data that is shared back with district is not timely and is not in a particularly useful format Cost to districts is extremely high, estimated to be $323M annually statewide Data rarely makes its way to the educators best positioned to improve student achievement © 2011 Michael & Susan Dell Foundation 5

 A data system for teachers, designed by teachers.  Delivers relevant, timely and actionable student data back to educators to continually improve performance  A “One stop shop” for student data available anywhere – brings together student information from multiple sources  Reduces reporting and collection burden to districts  Requires no additional data input  Available free of charge to all Texas districts  Creates a common data standard that enables vendors to provide districts additional tools at a low cost Texas Student Data System (TSDS) is the Vision for Data Collection and Sharing in Texas Enable 100% of educators to have access to timely, relevant, actionable data to drive classroom and student success © 2011 Michael & Susan Dell Foundation 6

TSDS encompasses four key projects State- sponsored SIS Education Data Warehouse (EDW) PEIMSTPEIR  Opt-in, voluntary SIS  TEA is considering multiple options on the model for offering state- sponsored SIS  TSDS will integrate with other SIS’s – no requirement or mandate to switch  Powers student, campus, district data dashboards  System supported by the state but the data only available to educators  Will become conduit to submit PEIMS data  Loading of non-PEIMS data is strictly optional and at the districts’ discretion  XML data standard will make it easier to submit and certify data  Realign statewide data collection standards and protocol for districts  Expanded to link pre-K, college readiness, and workforce data  Load college readiness test score collections (SAT, ACT, AP Test data) © 2011 Michael & Susan Dell Foundation 7

Future state: Timely, actionable student and classroom dashboards for educators © 2011 Michael & Susan Dell Foundation 10

Dashboards are Grounded in Best Practices and Vetted by Educators Nationwide Best Practices Audit Academic Research Focus Groups with 2,600 Educators Initial dashboards based on national education research and review of best practices across the country Received and incorporated feedback on dashboard from 2,600 educators in Texas Enhancements to dashboards based on stakeholder feedback © 2011 Michael & Susan Dell Foundation 11

Dashboards Consist of Four Levels Driven by Individual Student Data District/LEA Campus Classroom Student Drill down to the individual Student level from any aggregate view Data originates at the Student Level and rolls up to aggregate views

Dashboards are Intuitive and Comprehensive for Educators View incoming class at a glance, and see an overview of students’ historical performance and attendance, as well as any special accommodations required Recognize patterns and easily pinpoint areas for further action with visual indicators such as flags, status bars and icons “Click-thru” on a student to get detailed information regarding assessments, performance, attendance and discipline, as well as contact, mobility, and other relevant data Dashboard data will include the most recent source data, enabling decisions to be made on current data instead of outdated accountability information. © 2011 Michael & Susan Dell Foundation 13

Feedback from pilot districts has been positive © 2011 Michael & Susan Dell Foundation 14 “This will be so valuable in communicating with parents.” “I do LOVE that now I can access info about absences, credits, college readiness, etc. at the same time!” “With this data we would be able to identify and challenge our power kids!” 100% of Lubbock ISD training participants said they are likely or very likely to recommend the TSDS tools to their colleagues

State-Sponsored Student Information System

Texas Student Data System TEA SSIS Goals  Decrease SIS costs for LEAs  Provide enhanced features and richer data for reporting  Streamline with Software as a Service (SaaS) - 24/7 availability accessible from anywhere  Support PEIMS data standards and submissions  Provide “near” real-time data for LEAs State- sponsored SIS

Texas Student Data System TEA Benefits of SaaS  No need to purchase infrastructure software  No expenditures on hardware  Reduced need to purchase third party tools, modules and applications  No software or hardware replacement needed in ongoing years  Reduced spending on IT operations  Reduced support costs  No application and infrastructure re-implementation costs in years 3 to 5

Texas Student Data System TEA SSIS Contracts  Two SSIS vendors  SSIS contracts are umbrella agreements that allow the LEA to purchase without the need for an RFP or RFO  Each LEA will have a separate contract with the vendor  Contract Management teams will oversee the Service Level Agreements to include: - SSIS availability - Performance - Business continuity  Not-to-exceed pricing allows LEA to negotiate with vendor

Texas Student Data System TEA SSIS Vendor: Skyward, Inc.  Wisconsin-based provider of administrative software solutions for K-12 schools since 1980  Provides software for more than 1,400 LEAs of all sizes around the globe  Ten (10) regional offices across the country, including Dallas and Austin  Serves 177 LEAs in Texas with almost 900,000 students

Texas Student Data System TEA SSIS Vendor: TCC  San Antonio-based provider of administrative software solutions for K-12 schools since 1970  Provides student management software to 767 LEAs of all sizes in Texas  Delivers service via nineteen (19) regional Education Service Centers (ESCs) in Texas  Serves over 900,000 students

Texas Student Data System TEA Your Decision to Participate in the SSIS  How will the SSIS lower costs for our district?  Will the SSIS offer additional features we want?  What other applications will we need?  Will we be able to drop any applications we use now?  What kind of support will our staff need to provide?  Will we be able to reduce hours spent on SIS and reporting-related functions?

Texas Student Data System TEA Use TCO to Understand True Costs  Direct costs – - Tangible and understood: hardware, software, formal support  Indirect costs – - Ancillary applications or other technology to support main system - Labor for local informal and supplementary support - Power and space - Can add 60% – 100% to cost

Texas Student Data System TEA The SSIS TCO Workbook  Cost comparisons spread over 5 years  Evaluates direct and indirect costs of a SIS solution  Permits you to add/remove costs of ancillary products and support to fit scenario to your organization  Compares “as is” situation with possible “to be” scenarios “Understanding and consolidating direct and indirect costs tends to lead to lower overall spending.” --Gartner

Texas Student Data System TEA What can you do next?  Get your copy of the TCO Workbook/vendor agreements at:  Fill out the survey at:  Contact either the Skyward or the TCC Contract Management teams for help with the workbook by sending to  Contact TEA’s TSDS Change Manager with any general questions about the Texas Student Data System.
