[February 8, 2010]
Five Mansfield ISD schools were recognized by the National Center for Educational Achievement (NCEA) for the 2009 Just for the Kids Campaign for Higher Performing Schools in Texas.
 NCEA used two measures in the analysis for this recognition: growth and college and career readiness (CCR). Schools recognized for growth achieved better improvement rates for their students compared with other schools with similar demographics. Schools recognized for college and career readiness are the top 5 percent of schools in the state, based on the percentage of students scoring at or above NCEA’s CCR Targets.
“We are proud of the efforts at these schools for this type of recognition,” said Dr. Bob Morrison, superintendent of schools. “Being commended for measurable academic success is a great thing for our community to celebrate.”
The following schools, listed with their respective indicators, were recognized as Higher Performing Schools:
High Schools
- Mansfield Timberview High School – Reading (Growth)
Elementary Schools
- Charlotte Anderson Elementary – Grade 3 Reading (Growth)
- Cora Spencer Elementary – Grade 3 Math (CCR); Grade 4 and 5 Writing (Growth and CCR)
- Tarver-Rendon Elementary – Grade 3 Math (Growth)
- Roberta Tipps Elementary – Grade 3 Math (Growth and CCR); Grade 4 and 5 Math (Growth and CCR); Grade 4 and 5 Writing (CCR)
