The following questions were posed to invited teachers attending training provided by the Texas Classroom Teachers Association and the Association of Texas Professional Educators. Many schools have designated staff who take care of the reporting, but the reporting is not necessarily done the same across schools within a district. There are students who live like gypsies. They transfer from one district to another. They have many absences and bad grades.
Some students have questionable transcripts.
Open campus - little or no participation. Open cafeteria leads to fewer kids signing up for free or reduced-priced lunch program. Students transfer from one school to another without the proper paperwork. There is need for an improved student tracking system. Every district sends records to TEA differently.
