Students who move during the school year must be provided with opportunities to participate in STAAR, STAAR Alternate 2, the Texas English Language Proficiency Assessment System (TELPAS), and TELPAS Alternate, as appropriate.
District and campus testing coordinators must:
For students who have moved from one Texas district to another, the receiving district coordinator should move the student to the new district using the Transfer Student task in the Student Information module in the Test Information Distribution Engine (TIDE). For students who have moved from one campus to another within the same Texas district, district testing personnel should use the “Move to Another Enrolled Campus” option on the View/Edit/Export Student page. Refer to the How District-Level Users Transfer Students Between Districts topic or How District-Level Users Transfer Students Between Campuses topic of the TIDE User Guide for instructions.
District testing personnel can view reports of students who have transferred into and out of their district in the Student Information module in TIDE.
District coordinators, district testing assistants, and campus coordinators can view changes to a student’s registration during the current school year in TIDE using the View Student History feature. Refer to the TIDE User Guide for more information.
District testing personnel should ensure that information in TIDE for students who formally withdraw from the district is accurate and up to date. As required by Texas Administrative Code (TAC) §74.5(c), sending district personnel must ensure that academic achievement records are promptly provided to the receiving campus.
District and campus personnel must use the appropriate score codes to account for students who are no longer in attendance but have not formally withdrawn from the district, including migrant students.

It is not necessary to transfer a student who will test at an alternate location, such as a different campus, a different district, or an alternate education setting, to the other location in TIDE. District testing personnel should enter the name of the other testing location in the Testing District and Testing Campus fields in TIDE under the Student Demographics section. For reporting and accountability purposes, the student’s enrolled district and campus will receive the student’s test results.
