A suspended student may regain eligibility seven days after the six week grading period ends or seven days after a three week evaluation period. Approved Olympic-sanctioned sports may count as credit or a physical education substitute. These courses do not count toward graduation credits. Forms may be obtained from the registrar or counselor. A student receiving special education services who is younger than 22 years of age on September 1 of a scholastic year shall be eligible for services through the end of that scholastic year or until graduation, whichever comes first.
Graduation constitutes a release from services and is a change in placement.
A student receiving special education services may graduate upon satisfactorily completing the minimum academic credit requirements for graduation applicable to students in regular education, including satisfactory performance on the exit level assessment instrument. Students with disabilities who are eligible to take the exit level assessment instrument but have not performed satisfactorily are eligible for instruction in accordance with the TEC, 39.024. Academic Options Students have several academic options when selecting classes. They are advised to take courses at a level where they will be challenged and yet will perform successfully. Some courses are taught at only one level, while others are taught at two or more levels.
