Spicewood Elementary in Marble Falls ISD has been named to the Honor Roll by the Educational Results Partnership (ERP). This annual Honor Roll is a part of the national Campaign for Business and Education Excellence, which engages business leaders in recognizing successful schools and educational systems that prepare students with the essential skills needed for success in the workforce and in life.
The ERP Honor Roll is the only school recognition program in the nation that uses solely objective student achievement data as the criteria for recognition. This partnership with state and local busi- ness leaders aims to find and highlight successful schools and districts, encouraging collaboration among educators on best practices for raising student achievement.
Honor Roll schools represent those that were comprehensively higher performing on the State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness (STAAR) Reading Language Arts and Math Assessments, for all cohorts of student populations served, and that are improving outcomes for historically underserved student populations. To make the Honor Roll, a school or district must have comprehensively performed above the mean (trendline) at least 80 percent of the time for all cohorts of students served and for all grade levels served.
