FBN: FBISD Remains "Academically Acceptable" According To Latest TEA Measures

See: http://www.fortbendnow.com/2010/08/02/47108

Post note: According to the FBISD release from 1:30p. this afternoon the district scores improved by over 15% from last years and apparently without the use of the Texas Projection Measure (TPM) or at least the FBISD release says so...

Fact ck-Well we called two separate contacts at the TEA and asked for confirmation that FBISD did in fact NOT use the controversial TPM but both sources claimed they did and referred us to these links to verify that they DID IN FACT USE THE TPM:
