This week, the Texas Business and Education Coalition (TBEC) released its annual honor roll, and out of 253 schools throughout the state that made the list, six were from AISD! These Honor Roll schools represent less than 4% of all public schools in Texas, and include 34 high schools, 38 middle schools and 181 elementary schools.

In analyzing every public school in Texas, TBEC considers only the school’s commended performance, the state’s highest standard for academic achievement, and sets specific targets for schools based on grades served and student demographics.

This year being the last for the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) performance data, TBEC’s standards were the toughest in the 12-year history of the award.

Congratulations to these AISD schools for being named to the TBEC Honor Roll:

• Anderson High School
• Ann Richards School for Young Women Leaders
• Hill Elementary School
• Kealing Middle School
• Liberal Arts and Science Academy (LASA)
• Oak Hill Elementary School
