In Keller, TX an elementary school club is learning and teaching their peers about Tafadzwa. What started as a group with an interest in Afrian music and musical instruments has now turned into a much larger group of three clubs incorporating art, drama, and music.

I found this article in a local paper in Texas; the Academy was built on the basis of being a "green" institution; and since its open six years ago they have been going above and beyond with replacing bulbs, finding irrigation systems that will minmize water waste, and are conscientious about improving the environment.

I decided to post this article becuase last week I found one similar about schools who had improved achievement on test scores and were going to stay open; and now this article is talking about comparing some of the schools in that same ISD and making budget cuts because of test comparibility. The schools are magnet schools and learning centers that are facing these cuts and some of those schools are funded more than others. Parents are upset becuase the schools are funded equally and that the superintendent is trying to enforce cuts based on tests that don't show a true comparibility, like the school district is stating. It will be interesting to see the outcome of this vote. Education News - The Dallas Morning News is your trusted source for news from schools and school districts.

I found this article extremely interesting. 1. I think it is great that the school was able to rebound itself from being a low performer to fitting in with the rest of the schools in the ISD after many years below the norm. 2.

They took out the 10th and 11th grades to focus on those students who wanted to learn and were willing to graduate. I'm not sure how I feel about the principal/district sorting students by those willing and those not, how are they to make that decision?
