Fort Worth schools fail federal and state standards in largest percentage among big districts
The Fort Worth school district had the largest percentage of schools failing to meet state and federal academic standards among the largest districts in Texas, according to recently released data.
More than half, 56.4 percent, of the schools fell under the federal adequate yearly progress measures, and 16.5 percent were rated academically unacceptable by the state. While districts across the state had dips in accountability ratings, Fort Worth had the highest percentage of failing schools among the 10 largest districts.

TCC Administrators propose 5-year tuition increase
Tarrant County College students could pay more tuition under a preliminary plan to raise $27.4 million in five years to help pay for three new facilities and academic programs.
"We are going to see if it sticks," Trustee Bill Greenhill said.
Be sure and read the comments, from THE taxpayers.
Does anyone see the irony?
One has to ask, if they hadn't shoved the TCC boondoggle down the taxpayers throat, would there be a need to raise tuition? If OUR schools are failing in standards, will OUR kids be able to attend TCC?
