The Division of Performance-Based Monitoring is responsible for developing the Performance-Based Monitoring Analysis System (PBMAS) which is an automated data system that reports annually on the performance of school districts and charter schools in selected program areas (bilingual education/English as a second language, career and technical education, special education, and certain Title programs under the No Child Left Behind Act).

From the data contained in the PBMAS, the division designs and maintains the annual Performance-Based Monitoring Analysis System District Report. This report includes specific data for each performance indicator in the PBMAS. The division began producing a state-level PBMAS report in 2006 and regional reports in 2007. A technical resource for understanding the PBMAS reports is each monitoring year's corresponding PBMAS Manual.

The Division of Performance-Based Monitoring is also responsible for developing and reporting on a variety of data validation indicators, including indicators to examine leaver/dropout records, discipline data, and student assessment data.

Contact the Division of Performance-Based Monitoring if you have any questions.
