District-level users with the Analyze Accountability Data right for all schools can harness Axiom’s various features with an active license.

Grant Accountability Access

Two levels exist for granting accountability access: assigning the specific right and determining Axiom reporting access for school leaders.

Assign the Analyze Accountability Data Right

Within Management, a system administrator can assign the Analyze Accountability Data right in Aware to any district-level user who manages accountability data. Be sure there is a green check mark next to the right to grant the user access to all schools within their district.

Ensuring All Data Is Imported

Select View Data Files ( data_object ) from the three vertical dots ( more_vert ) to confirm that all data files have been imported.

Menu options highlighting the View Data Files selection.

Table displaying accountability data sources with various test types and statuses.

Reimporting Data Files

In the event you need to reimport a data file because you are missing data or the most recent file version, follow these steps:

Navigate to the Analysis Settings gear ( settings ) in Aware, select Upload Test Files, then select the History tab.
Select all of this year’s state files, then select Re-Import File.
After reimporting, navigate to Axiom ( insights ), then select Recalculate All Data ( calculate ).

Ensure you have imported the following files into Aware:

All SAT data files from Summer 2025 to Summer 2026
STAAR Alternate 2 2026
STAAR EOC Summer 2025 Administration
STAAR EOC Fall 2025 Administration
STAAR EOC Spring 2026 Administration
STAAR Grades 3-8 Spring 2026 Administration
TELPAS 2026
TELPAS Alternate 2026
2025 SDR (SIRS) files for any students taking EOC exams in the 2025-26 cycle

Note: SAT files are required for High School Domain 1 STAAR Component scores. ACT data files from Summer 2025 to Summer 2026 are recommended but not required.

The Consolidated Accountability File (CAF) is not necessary and not required for Axiom to work.

The Axiom home screen shows the last time a data recalculation occurred. This is most helpful to determine whether a recalculation might be necessary if the district has uploaded data recently.

Recalculate Accountability Predictions

Select Recalculate All Data ( calculate ) from the three vertical dots ( more_vert ) on the Axiom home screen. This step reloads the data.

Menu options highlighting the Recalculate All Data feature.

You must Recalculate All Data if you

import test files,
re-import test files,
modify campus settings,
modify Domain 1 Components, or
modify Domain 3 Components.

Caution: Only click Recalculate All Data once; multiple clicks disrupt the calculation process.

If you import or reimport files or if Domain 1 data is added, a warning banner will appear, reminding you to Recalculate All Data. This does not mean you need to reimport STAAR files. Instead, you need to click Recalculate All Data.

Caution: As updates as made to the software and new data is provided in the data files, it is critical to reimport all state test files and then select Recalculate All Data. This is your first option when troubleshooting. Reimport, then recalculate.

Configure Schools

Select Configure Schools ( school ) from the three vertical dots ( more_vert ) to add CCMR data or manually change the numbers or selections made. While the numbers here originate from TEA resources, you might have access to your most up-to-date, most accurate data for these fields and need to make changes accordingly.

Menu options highlighting the Configure Schools feature.

Select the Upload CCMR Data button ( upload ) to upload the CCMR CSV report from TEAL.

Under the Type column, confirm that each school and district has the appropriate designation. Then, open the drop-down menu next to each school to make any necessary changes.

Adjust any information in the Eco Dis % column if needed. Check that the two lowest performing Racial/Ethnic Groups are correct in the 1st Group and 2nd Group columns (order does not matter). Make any corrections using their respective drop-down menus.

Configure Schools table displaying school data, including names, types, and enrollment statistics.

Note: For the 2026 accountability year, districts must configure the Previous Year ELP performance for Domain 3 for each school. TEA updated how the ELP for Domain 3 calculated ELP status, applied those updates to 2025 for data comparison purposes, and sent the updated scores to schools through TEAL. The publicly available Domain 3 scores were not updated with the new, recalculated ELP scores for 2025.

Select More under the Actions column to input Graduation Rate and CCMR information for each applicable campus. Type in Domain 1 and Domain 3 Components for the selected school or district.
