TEA Login Application Overview

The Texas Education Agency Login (TEAL) application is your security gateway to TEA web applications and resources. This portal allows you to request secure access to TEA applications and to manage your user account information.

TEA applications provide access to student records, educator records, school financial data, and other information that must be kept secure from unauthorized access. Access to TEA applications must be authorized by TEA and protected to secure important data.

TEAL has self-service features that allow you to do the following:

Roles in Obtaining Application Access

All access to TEA web applications must be reviewed by at least two approvers. There are three roles involved in obtaining access to TEA applications protected by TEAL:

Note:

Alternate Approvers for independent school districts must submit school board meeting minutes that authorize delegation of Primary Approver authority to TEA's Computer Access team. For more information, refer to the TEAL Quick Reference for Organization Approvers, available on the TEA web site.

Users can submit requests to be backup service approvers to help support requests for access.

Note:

In addition to these roles, each application has its own roles and privileges to permit differing levels of access to information within that application. Consult the Help for your application for a description of those roles.

Approval Process

When a state, district, or nonprofit employee or other user needs access to a TEA web application protected by TEAL, the request that user submits is routed for verification and approval to the designated approver at the local organization. After approval, the request is routed to the TEA application owner for final approval.
