_Appendix A - Commissioner of Education Rule_

Beginning in 2000, a portion of the Accountability Manual has been adopted on an annual basis as a Commissioner of Education rule. With the publication of this Manual, the Texas Education Agency will file a Commissioner’s Rule amendment to 19 Texas Administrative Code §97.1001, Accountability Rating System, with the Office of the Secretary of State. This rule will adopt the 2007 Accountability Manual, Chapters 2-6, 8, 10-12, and 14-16, thus giving legal standing to the rating process and procedures.

Allowing for a 30-day comment period, final adoption should occur by July 31, 2007. Once the rule is adopted, it may be accessed online at:
