Today’s Agenda

• Review and discuss HB 5 graduation requirements

• Review HB 5 and impact on Special Education


Student Interest: • Students may select an area of interest

through one or more endorsements.

Flexibility: • Course sequencing is less rigid and allows

for more course combinations and endorsement sequences.

(Look at district policy)

Local Control:

• Districts may define advanced courses and determine coherent sequences of courses based on Chapter §74.13 guidelines. (Look at district policy and course listing)

Impact of HB 5 Section 16


Chapter 74, Subchapter B Graduation

the student has demonstrated equivalent knowledge as determined by the school district; or

the student was already enrolled in the course in an out-of-state, an out-of-country, or a Texas nonpublic school and transferred to a Texas public school prior to successfully completing the course.

MMA Math Update…

–Mathematical Models with Applications will continue to be available to satisfy:• Third mathematics credit for students on

the

• Foundation High School Program (FHSP)

• Minimum High School Program (MHSP)

• Recommended High School Program (RHSP).

• In 2015-2016 school year, Mathematical Models cannot satisfy the fourth mathematics credit for students on the Foundation High School Program.


Math Models taken in the 4th year of high school

Jo Ann BilderbackDirector of MathematicsCurriculum Standards and Student Support DivisionTexas Education Agency512-463-9581512-463-8057 (fax)[email protected]

• Texas Administrative Code (TAC) §74.12(b)(2)(A) lists Mathematical Models with Applications (MMA) as a course that can satisfy a third mathematics credit for graduation. The only sequencing requirements for students on the Foundation High School Program are the prerequisites listed for a course. Since Algebra I is the only required prerequisite for MMA, a student can take MMA at any time after he/she has successfully completed Algebra I.

For example:

A student could take MMA during his/her fourth year of high school, but it would still only satisfy the third mathematics credit for graduation. Algebra II can satisfy a third mathematics credit, but it can also satisfy a fourth mathematics credit as listed in TAC §74.13(e)(2)(A). In this situation, MMA would satisfy the third mathematics credit even though it was taken after Algebra II and in the fourth year; Algebra II would satisfy the fourth mathematics credit.

• Students may enroll in a college course and receive high school credit.

• Students may take correspondence courses or distance learning courses. The only two institutions approved for correspondence courses are UT Austin and Texas Tech.

• Students may enroll in an online course. The Texas Virtual School Network (TxVSN) catalog offers TEKS-based courses that are approved by the TEA and taught by Texas-certified teachers trained in best practices for online instruction.

No


CTE for LOTE Substitutions (SPED & 504)

Could a 2/3 credit course count as one course and substitute both LOTE credits?

Kelsey Cling, TEA, stated a 2 or 3 credit CTE course could count as one course and substitute both LOTE credits. This is a local decision and the ARD committee is regarded as the “appropriate” committee to make this decision

Ms. Vanhee,

Per our phone conversation, a student may earn fine arts credit for Music I and physical education at the same time if the student is participating in the “activity” of marching band. It is a local district decision to offer the PE substitution for either a half or a full credit. If you have any other questions don’t hesitate to contact me. Take care and have a great day.

A student may earn an endorsement by successfully completing the curriculum requirements for the endorsement, four math credits, four science credits and two additional elective credits. If a campus only offers one endorsement, it must be a multidisciplinary endorsement.


EndorsementsStudent Interest

A student shall specify in writing an endorsement the student intends to earn upon entering Grade 9.

A district shall permit a student to

enroll in courses under more than one endorsement before the student's junior year and

to choose, at any time, to earn an endorsement other than the endorsement the student previously indicated.

This section does not entitle a student to remain enrolled to earn more than 26 credits.

8. How does this list impact the industry certifications eligible for student performance acknowledgments in the Foundation High School Program?

• TEA does not have the authority to define criteria for industry certifications eligible for student performance acknowledgements. It is the responsibility of the district to apply the definition adopted by the State Board of Education in determining what qualifies as a certification for

performance acknowledgments. They may or may not include certifications on the list for accountability.

Transcript Sample

Thank you Santa Rosa!


Senate Bill 30INSTRUCTION ON PROPER INTERACTION WITH PEACE OFFICER

• The SBOE adopted a new rule in Title 19 of the Texas Administrative Code (TAC), §74.39,• Requirements for Instruction on Proper Interaction with Peace Officers, that became

effective August 27, 2018. • This rule requires school districts and charter schools to provide instruction to students in

grades 9-12 on proper interaction with peace officers during traffic stops and other in-person encounters.

• New requirement applies to any student who enters grade 9 in the 2018-2019 school year and thereafter.

• SB 30 also establishes that a school district or open-enrollment charter school may tailor the instruction on proper interaction with peace officers as appropriate for the district or school community. • In tailoring the instruction, the district or school is required to solicit input from local

law enforcement agencies, driver training schools, and the community.


Senate Bill 30

Curriculum

A new instructional video, Flashing Lights: Creating Safe Interactions between Citizens and Law Enforcement, has been developed and is now available on the Texas Gateway.

• The 16-minute video includes traffic stop simulations and defines the behavior and expectations of citizens and law enforcement during traffic interactions. An instructor’s guide is also provided to educators to support the instruction. The video and instructor's guide can be found at https://www.texasgateway.org/resource/flashing-lights-senate-bill-30.

STAAR ALT Assessment

TEA has developed the STAAR Alternate 2 assessment to meet the federal requirements mandated under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), a federal education law previously known as No Child Left Behind. TEA designed the STAAR Alternate 2 to assess students in grades 3–8 and high school who have significant cognitive disabilities and are receiving special education services.

Replacing a Course

A student took a modified course and now is retaking the course so they can graduate under FHSP with a Multidisciplinary Endorsement in the Foundation Subject Area.

The question is:

Now that the regular and modified courses share the same the PEIMS description codes, how would it be coded on the AAR?

The district may use a local-credit course codes for one of the courses since a student may not receive credit for the same course more than once.
