Final Exam Schedule for 9th-11th

5/12/2025 11:54 am

Grade 9 students may be allowed one spring final exam exemption; two spring final exam exemptions may be allowed for eligible 10th and 11th graders.  Eligible students are those with no more than three (3) absences in any one course for the duration of the semester. In addition, eligible students must have an 85 or higher semester average in the specific course(s) where the final exam exemption is applied. 
Students are expected to be in attendance for all exams even if they are exempt.  Missing a final exam will result in a zero on the report card until the final exam is made up. The make-up period is June 5 - 12, 2025. After that date the zero is final.  If a student has exempted an exam and is absent, the absence could cause the students to lose exemption status and/or could cause an NG resulting in a loss of credit.

First Lunch consists of students in the M building and the G building
Second Lunch consists of students in the A and V Building

Advocacy Update

3/17/2025 11:29 am

HISD Advocacy:  There are currently no more budget workshops scheduled by the Board of Managers.  However, given the new school funding legislation, another workshop is needed before the Board votes on the 2025-26 budget. 
State Advocacy:  The Senate and House have reached a compromise on HB2.  The legislation raises teacher and staff pay, expands special education services, increases school safety resources, and provides additional funding for insurance, utilities, and other essential operations.  The increase in the basic allotment is lower than many public education advocates had hoped.   HB 4, which would move Texas towards a new accountability system less dependent on STAAR testing, is still pending.  Follow Raise Your Hand Texas for more information.
