TSI Exit Criteria.

ESSA does not require exit criteria to be set for TSI schools. Instead, it allows districts to set the exit criteria for TSI schools and suggests that the criteria for support and improvement be informed by all indicators of the accountability system, including student performance against the state's long term goals.
