90% Attendance Rule For Credit/Final Grades
Texas Education Code Section 25.092~MINIMUM ATTENDANCE FOR CLASS CREDIT OR FINAL GRADE
What Does The 90% Rule Mean For Your Child?
- In addition to Texas compulsory attendance laws, districts are required to enforce the 90% rule which states that students in grades Kindergarten through 12th must attend a class for 90% of the time it is offered to receive credit or a final grade. This rule applies even if your child has an IEP or 504 Plan.
