Chester County Stakeholders,

Good Monday morning.  As part of the Tennessee Investment in Student Achievement Act (TISA), T.C.A. § 49-3-112 requires each school district to submit an annual accountability report to the Tennessee Department of Education. 

This report must include: 

• One of the goals must include the district’s plan to pursue the goal of seventy percent (70%) or more of the district's third-grade students to score “met expectations” or “exceeded expectations” on the English Language Arts (ELA) portion of the TCAP tests. This goal must also detail the district’s goal to increase 3rd-grade ELA proficiency rates to achieve the district’s stated goal of at least 70% of 3rd-grade students proficient in ELA.
• Explanation of how the district's stated goals can be met within the district's budget. 
• A description of how the district’s budget and expenditures from the prior school year enabled the district to make progress toward the stated student achievement goals. 

Also, each district's TISA accountability report is required to be presented to the public for review and comment. Please view the TISA Accountability Report and offer your feedback on the report by using the form linked here.  The deadline to complete the survey ends on Friday afternoon, October 10, 2025.  Thanks, and have a great day.
