Borchardt Named to TBEC Honor Roll for 2009
Ruth Borchardt Elementary has AGAIN been named to the Texas Business and Education Coalition (TBEC) Honor Roll for 2009. Of the more than 8,000 Texas public schools, less than 4% receive this honor. 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. Through the dedicated work of both teachers and students, Borchardt have earned a place on the Honor Roll for the second year in a row! Way to go RBE!!!
Have you Filled a Bucket Today?
Ask your child this question and see what they say. Mrs. Whisenant started a new program about kindness and happiness and how when you say and do nice things for one another it makes you both feel good and therefore, "fills each others buckets". There will be weekly drawings for "bucket fillers" all year long.
