HS Accelerated Instruction Program
Summer 2025
Summer 2026
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
High School Accelerated Instruction is a supplemental program for students identified as at-risk according to the state’s criteria, who have failed an EOC exam. The course is designed to strengthen skills and knowledge of the five (5) EOC tested courses. Eighth grade students who failed the Algebra I EOC are eligible to attend the AI high school program where they will enroll for the following school year. The accelerated curriculum is based on individual student prior performance on the EOC test disaggregated by performance standards. Additionally, each course uses unit pre-tests to target instruction considered necessary for greater success.

The courses listed above will incorporate a combination of teacher-led accelerated instruction and online modules. The program is designed to prepare students for the summer STAAR/EOC assessments, while also providing an opportunity for credit retrieval through the online modules. This opportunity is intended for students who failed the course during the school year and did not pass the EOC assessment. If students successfully complete the modules, they will earn course credit or in some cases, multiple units may be exempted within the credit retrieval course, allowing students to earn credit through a shortened course pathway. Grades posted for successful completion of credit retrieval courses will be recorded as a 70.
