Trautmann Elementary School to receive another accolade

Trautmann Elementary School, home of the Mighty Texans, has another award to add to their list for the 2010-11 school year. After recently being named a "National Blue Ribbon School" by the U.S. Department of Education, the campus has also made the Texas Business and Education Coalition's (TBEC) Honor Roll. Of the more than 8,000 public schools in the state, less than 4 percent receive this honor.

"On behalf of our Board of Trustees, I would like to congratulate the students, faculty, and staff of Trautmann Elementary School," said United Independent School District Superintendent Roberto J. Santos. "I would also like to congratulate the parents. Their involvement in their child's education will continue to place them on the path to success."

The TBEC Honor Roll is considered 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.

TBEC will recognize all the Honor Roll Schools on Monday, Nov. 15, at an Awards Reception and Dinner in Austin sponsored by H-E-B. TBEC will also host a series of seminars where school representatives will have the opportunity to learn about new educational programs for their campus and the District.

Located at 810 Lindenwood Drive, Trautmann is home to about 800 students and 80 faculty and staff members. The proud principal is Cynthia Rodriguez.
