*TEA Goals: “performance expectations…raise the
bar…” “…12 end-of-course (EOC) assessments…
linked to college and career readiness” “…3-8 tests will be linked…to
performance standards for Alg II and Eng III assessments”
“Individual student reports…easily understood by students and parents…”
Why The Change in Testing?

Met minimum = did not pass but has enough points for cumulative

For each subject assessed: Score conversion determined locally Counts toward final grade of Class
Example: Alg I = 82 for the course EOC = 68 (based upon district conversion) Final Course Grade =
(82 x 0.85) + (68 x 0.15) 69.7 + 10.2 79.9 80

Each child should try to meet Level II on an assessment as well as have enough points to count toward a cumulative score based upon graduation plans
Cumulative Score is calculated by total points in each subject area for required tests for each individual student
Out of state or private school earned credits are not required to EOC test; however, a test may be challenged
