So What? I'm a TAKS Star 2009


The 7th graders at Kimbrough Middle School created an awesome music video to motivate other students to strive for excellence on the 2009 TAKS Test. The results came back a couple of weeks ago, and team 7-3 had approximately 91% passing. Around 37% of the students on team 7-3 achieved commended performance on the reading portion of the test. Way to go Courgars!

Creating this music video was a very difficult task. It took several months to write the lyrics. Once that was done, we created most of the video and still shots based on the words to the song. Then, of course, we had to spend hours rehearsing and practicing the vocals. Overall, this project really helped our students work together as a team to produce a video that we enjoy watching and we are very proud of. Please let us know your thoughts about the video.
