Greetings!
A record 14 Plano ISD schools made the Texas Business and Education Coalition's (TBEC) 2010 Honor Roll--Jasper High School was one of the schools receiving this honor. The TBEC Honor Roll recognizes schools for academic performance and honors those students, teachers, principals and superintendents who have won their championships in the classroom.
TBEC identifies honor roll schools by analyzing three years of performance data for every public school in Texas. Honor roll schools have the highest percentage of students performing at the state's most rigorous standard--commended--in every subject on state-mandated tests. Selection criteria also considers schools' demographics, number of subjects tested and grade levels.
Congratulations Jasper High School!
