TEA announces sweeping exemption from ratings for hurricane-impacted districts

The Texas Education Agency has posted its rule that likely will govern which Hurricane Harvey-impacted schools will be exempt from accountability ratings for the upcoming school year.

School campuses and charters are not named in the rule, but the bar for exempting a campus is only 10 percent of students impacted by Hurricane Harvey. Impacted is defined as attending another school district, another campus or being declared homeless.
