This great news for Highland Park was received from the Texas Business & Education Coalition!:

Congratulations! HIGHLAND PARK ELEMENTARY has made the TBEC Honor Roll for 2009.  We are pleased to announce that your school is included in this very select group. Of the more than 8,000 Texas public schools less than 4% will be so honored.  

The TBEC Honor Roll is the most prestigious award for sustained, academic excellence in Texas.  It recognizes schools that have demonstrated three years of consistent, high performance in all subjects compared to other schools serving similar student populations. TBEC Honor Roll schools have the highest percentage of students performing at the state’s most rigorous standard-commended- in every subject. You and your school have truly earned a place on the Honor Roll through hard work and student achievement over an extended period of time.
