The Tennessee Investment in Student Achievement (TISA) public school funding formula significantly changes how Tennessee invests in public education. The TISA funding formula updates the way Tennessee funds public education for the first time in over 30 years to empower each student to read proficiently by third grade, prepare each high school graduate for postsecondary success, and provide resources needed for all students to ensure they succeed.

As part of TISA, T.C.A. § 49-3-112 requires each school district, starting in the 2023-24 school year, to submit an annual accountability report to the Tennessee Department of Education detailing goals for student achievement, including a plan to have 70% of third graders meet or exceed expectations in English Language Arts (ELA).

Please review the plan and submit feedback using the survey. The survey will close on October 29, 2025. We appreciate your time and feedback.
