At the beginning of the 2006-2007 school year all core academic teachers were considered HQ. Our district goal is to maintain HQ status on each existing core academic teacher and all new core academic teachers to the district. The LEA level Highly Qualified Teacher Reports for LEAs and individual campuses will be available on the Texas Education Agency (TEA) NCLB web site at http://www.tea.state.tx.us/nclb/hqreport.html.
