Where TEA has established a test window, the district or campus may specify the local test date. View the Mason ISD Calendar for testing dates on your child’s campus.
STUDENT SCORES
The Texas Education Agency publishes STAAR Report Cards for all students every year. To improve communication and transparency with educators and families, TEA has redesigned the Confidential Student Report (CSR). The goal of the redesigned CSR is to create a family-friendly report on student progress, specifically highlighting growth and improvement as much as proficiency.
