School and District Accountability Resources and Data

The following is a collection of resources and data related to New York State's accountability system under the federally approved Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), which was signed by President Obama in 2015.  The system has been in place since the 2018-19 school year.  Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the United States Education Department approved a two-year pause in accountability determinations for the 2020-21 and 2021-22 school years. The accountability system restarted in the 2022-23 school year based on 2021-22 school year results. Contact accountinfo@nysed.gov for any questions or to locate resources and data not provided here.

For further resources related to ESSA, please visit the ESSA Plan page. For more information on the New York State Education Department (NYSED) Student Information Repository System (SIRS), visit the NYSED Information and Reporting Services webpage
