EOC Scores Required for Graduation • Requires TEA to adopt five end-‐of-‐course (EOC) exams, including: • English I (reading and writing on a single test and given one score) • English II (reading and writing on a single test and given one score) • Algebra I • Biology • U.S History
Other Tests That Can Satisfy EOC Score Requirements Requires the TEA commissioner to determine a method by which satisfactory performance on an AP, IB, SAT Subject Test, the SAT or the ACT, or any nationally recognized norm-‐referenced tests used by institutions of higher education to award course credit based on satisfactory performance to satisfy the EOC requirements for an equivalent course. Removes commissioner rule-‐making authority and commissioner discretion to determine if any of these tests are “at least as rigorous as an EOC.”
Other Tests That Can Satisfy EOC Score Requirements Allows a student who fails to perform satisfactorily on one of these tests, other than the PSAT or the ACT-‐Plan, to retake the test or another test, including the EOC, for the purpose of satisfying the EOC requirements. Mandates that a student who fails to perform satisfactorily on the PSAT or the ACT-‐Plan must take the appropriate EOC. Permits the commissioner to adopt rules for these particular provisions.
Grade 11 Students Not Meeting EOC Score Requirements Mandates that if a district determines on completion of grade 11 that a student is unlikely to achieve the necessary score for one or more EOC exams, the district must require the student to enroll in a corresponding content-‐area college preparatory course.
