  • Texas First Lady Anita Perry
    Texas First Lady Anita Perry For the past nine years, Texas First Lady Anita Perry has worked to promote a number of issues to benefit Texans from all walks of life, for Texans young and old and in all parts of the state. Active in the historic preservation of Texas’ cultural landmarks and communities, the First Lady plays a dynamic role in the Texas Historical Commission’s (THC) annual Main Street program, and travels the state educating Texans on the importance of restoration and preservation in revitalizing communities. In July 2008, the THC designated a new recognition to honor communities that demonstrate a high level of creativity and ingenuity. Named the First Lady’s Texas Treasures Award, Mrs. Perry serves as honorary chair of this endeavor to bring attention to small towns that work hard to preserve their authentic Texas sense of place. Along with Texas Governor Rick Perry, Mrs. Perry is committed to enhancing Texas’ expansion into international markets and promoting Texas as a prime location for business and trade. In that capacity, and as a dedicated representative of Texas tourism and economic development, the First Lady has led missions of Texas delegates to Japan, Germany and Spain. Mrs. Perry was recently honored by the Texas Travel Industry Association with the Silver Spur Award for her support of Texas travel. Promoting Texas tourism generates billions of dollars each year for the state’s economy. Following the devastating fire at the Governor’s Mansion in June 2008, the First Lady founded the Texas Governor’s Mansion Restoration Fund. Restoration of the 154-year-old Texas treasure will come from a public/private partnership and Mrs.

  • J. Hooper Board Meeting: January 2020 Report of 2019 NCLEX-RN® Examination Pass Rates for Prof
    Agenda Item: 3.2.8. Prepared by: J. Hooper Board Meeting: January 2020 Report of 2019 NCLEX-RN® Examination Pass Rates For Professional Nursing Education Programs Summary: The period between October 1 and ending September 30 is used for the purpose of determining programs’ NCLEX-RN® examination pass rates. The attached report provides final 2019 NCLEX- RN® examination pass rates of first time test-takers from the professional nursing education programs in Texas as well as for clinical competency assessment programs operated out-of-state, for the purpose of meeting requirements of HB 2950 passed during the 85th regular session of the Texas Legislature. Programs with an asterisk (*) are commended for their pass rates of 90% or above. New programs that have not had graduates are not included in the report. Rule 215.4(c) states that “Approval status is determined biennially by the Board on the basis of the program’s compliance audit, NCLEX-RN® examination pass rate, and other pertinent data”. Certificates of Approval are provided to all programs every two years and will be provided in 2020. Trends: The overall 2019 NCLEX-RN® examination pass rate for Texas programs is 91.90% (11,905/12,954), which is above the national average of 88.07%. The NCLEX-RN® passing standard was last raised by the NCSBN Board of Directors in December 2012 and made effective April 1, 2013, based upon findings in the RN Practice Analysis. Texas is one of three states with more than 10,000 first-time candidates for the NCLEX- RN® examination. The other two states are California and Florida.
