More Texas AYP...This Time For Keeps!
Eduwonk
Federal education officials are threatening to withhold $7 million in federal education aid if Texas officials don't get off the dime and release information about how Texas schools did under No Child Left Behind.

A lot going on in this story, worth reading.

PR note: Texas officials said: "...state officials say the money the federal government may withhold won't affect programs at the school or district level."

In other words, "we're flush, this is no big deal…" Probably not a very good talking point...it sure doesn't help anyone trying to get more funding for state education agencies!
