Just as a FYI, was curious why we didn't get a TBEC Honor Roll for 2012 and again for 2013 - the last we had was for 2011.

The reason given for none in 2012:


Quote:
Because of the new STAAR and EOC testing system now in place we will not have the necessary data available for a 2012 TBEC Honor Roll. Therefore, we will not have a celebration this year. We looked at several other scenarios with the hope of determining a list for 2012 but were unable to come up with a system that would be fair to all schools.
For those new to the area, earning recognition as a TBEC Honor Roll school had been considered the most prestigious academic award a Texas public school could receive. Now it appears it is no longer in existence, along with their previous website - tbec.org - which means that we can't even view their previous years' honor rolls.

Too bad, hate to see this great org go by the wayside... another victim of the STAARS debacle, resulting in no funding.
