French Elementary becomes a five-star school

French Elementary School was previously rated as 2 stars under the state's old accountability system. Principal Tammy Villarreal-Crabb and her staff knew something needed to change. Now, the school is rated the highest -- 5 stars -- under the state's new performance framework, which officials tout as more rigorous than the previous system. "Our teachers really, really believe in this school," Villarreal-Crabb said.
