Credit by Exam

Credit by Exam

The state’s education law, the Texas Administrative Code (TAC), will allow Palacios ISD public school students to obtain credit in a course or grade level by passing tests approved by school district trustees.  Texas law, 19 TAC Chapter 74, allows students to “test out of a course” by taking a “Credit by Examination” without prior instruction in the course(s) being tested.  To earn credit for a grade or a subject the student must answer 80% of the questions correctly.  Refer to policy: EHDC(LEGAL)
