The Texas Assessment of Minimum Skills (TEAMS) is a mandated criterion-referenced test administered to students in grades 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11 in Texas public schools. This report by the Austin Independent School District (AISD) contains an executive summary of TEAMS results, an analysis of performance, and attachments. Among the major findings are: (1) students in the AISD scored higher on the 1987 TEAMS than on the 1986 TEAMS; (2) the gains made by AISD students were not as large as the gains made by students in other Texas urban districts; (3) the largest gains on TEAMS were by low-achieving students; (4) AISD Hispanic students mastered the Spanish TEAMS at rates higher than students in other urban districts; and (5) virtually all (99.4%) of potential graduates passed both areas (mathematics and language arts) of the exit-level TEAMS. The text of the report is presented in a question and answer format and describes and evaluates student performance, district efforts to prepare students for exit-level TEAMS, remediation services, and reactions of students and teachers. Attachments to the report include: information on TEAMS mastery criteria; and data on TEAMS results by ethnicity, and rankings by school. (MDE)
