Mission
Tornillo ISD has a responsibility as a whole to continually strive for accuracy in PEIMS data. In order to reach greater accuracy, we will collaborate with all campuses and departments to work as a team to efficiently collect, communicate, code, maintain and update all data.
Goals
The Public Education Information Management System (PEIMS) encompasses all data requested and received by TEA about public education, including student demographic and academic performance, personnel, financial, and organizational information.
The data collected through the PEIMS electronic collection method has:
A standard set of definitions, codes, formats, procedures, and dates for the collection of data published as the PEIMS Data Standards; Standard edit procedures; An established database design; A production system to format and load data into the TEA enterprise database; and written documentation describing the numeric and alphanumeric values stored in the database published as the Data Documentation.
For the PEIMS electronic collection, school districts submit their data via standardized computer files, as defined by the TEDS PEIMS Data Standards.
Technical support for gathering the data from district databases is supplied by one of the twenty educational service centers (ESCs) or by private vendors. A software system of standard edits, to enhance the quality of data, is used by ESCs and again by the agency on district data submissions. Currently, the major categories of data collected are:
organizational
budget
actual financial
staff
student demographic
program participation
school leaver
student attendance
course completion
discipline
TEA manages other collections for evaluation, monitoring, funding, or auditing. Many are automated, electronic collections.
In compliance with the Texas Education Code, PEIMS contains only the data necessary for the legislature and TEA to perform their legally authorized functions in overseeing public education.
