9.Q. Annual Review and discussion of Policy EIC (LOCAL): Class Rank This policy addresses the district’s class rank provisions. It is recommended that any changes to this policy be made during the summer with specific provision notes added for clarification. If your policy needs to be updated or if outdated provisions need to be removed, please contact your policy consultant. Review your policy for changes that might be needed due to the following: Pre-AP® Course Designation: The College Board, which provides Pre-Advanced Placement (Pre-AP) courses, has notified districts that Pre-AP is a registered trademark and can only be used in relation to official College Board Pre-AP courses. During the 2021-22 school year, districts were required to cease using a “Pre-AP” label for courses that have not been approved by the College Board. If your district has not already revised its class rank or other policies accordingly, please contact your policy consultant. Retaken Course Grades: State law permits parents to elect to have their student repeat a high school course in which the student was enrolled during the previous school year unless the district determines the student has met all requirements for graduation. Absent local policy, TEA guidance provides that the original passing grade must be retained. Contact your policy consultant for assistance with policy language that reflects the district’s option regarding the use of grades from retaken courses in the calculation of class rank and on the transcript.
