High School Credit in Middle School

Students have the opportunity to take high school courses at the middle school level. The curriculum of these high school courses and the academic expectations for student performance are the same as when the courses are taken in grades nine through twelve.

The grades earned in these courses are recorded on the student’s high school transcript and are used in calculating the student’s grade point average (GPA). Core courses (ELA, Math, Science, Social Studies) and Languages other than English will have a weighted GPA. The grade in these classes will count in the GPA and Class Rank. Speak to your campus for more information.

STAAR EOC exams are associated with Algebra I and Biology I courses, and students must meet passing standards on these tests to fulfill high school graduation requirements.

Students must meet 90% attendance requirements in order to receive credit for high school courses.

High School Credit for Advancement in Summer

Students who wish to get ahead in high school credits may take self-paced courses primarily taught through Edgenuity.  Student coursework is supported and facilitated by teachers.  Students may complete the courses independently or at Bryan High School during summer school hours.  Students may only take one course at a time.
