Texas districts are required to provide Accelerated Instruction data to the state for students transferring out of the district. Branching Minds automatically updates reports nightly for all Texas districts and makes them available in a folder on the district SFTP, inside a folder named /exports/PEIMS/. The reports can be extracted by any district user who has access to the Branching Minds SFTP folder.
The data contained in these extracts are presented in the state-required PEIMS format to the greatest extent possible, allowing for easy submission via the Texas Records Exchange (TREx) system.
These CSV files contain all the information on each student's intervention plan flagged as meeting Accelerated Learning requirements, as well as each student's custom tag(s). Only plans flagged “Accelerated Learning” are included on this report, and if a district does not have any plans tagged to Accelerated Learning, no report will be generated.
Note that students may have multiple plans for Accelerated Learning, and each will appear on a separate row for calculation before submitting to the state ODS.
