1 What scores do I need to pass each End-of-Course test? For Algebra I, Biology, and World Geography, a scale score of is considered passing. However, the number and percentage of items correct can vary from test to test.

2 What scores do I need to pass each End-of-Course test? For English I, a scale score of 1875 is considered passing on the Reading section as well as the Writing section. So, the two tests have a combined passing score of.

Each essay is scored by two graders, and each of their scores is doubled. This creates a maximum of 16 possible points for each essay. To Graduate Students in Phase-in 1 who graduate at or above the Recommended High School Programmust meet a cumulative score requirement of 11,250 on their English I, II and II exams in Reading and Writing.

3 STAAR EOC Standards Phase-In I ( Academic Performance) (Satisfactory Academic Performance) Algebra I EOC Standards Phase-In I (Unsatisfactory Academic Performance) Algebra I EOC s Final Phase-in 1 Geometry EOC s Final Phase-in 1 Algebra II EOC s Final Phase-in 1 The Phase-in year to which a student belongs is determined on a student-by-student basis by content area, * depending on the year in which the student takes her first EOC test in math. For example, if a student takes the Algebra I EOC in, then she must meet the Phasein 1 standards ( = passing ) for all of her remaining EOC math tests. Students at or above the Recommended High School Program for graduation must meet the score on Algebra II. In addition, the cumulative score requirements from all three math EOC exams are determined as follows: Phase-in 1: 3 = 10,500 Phase-in 2: 3 = 11,250 Final Recommendation: 3 = 12,000 The I cut score is required on the Algebra II EOC test for students graduating under the Distinguished Achievement Program. The scores (4080 for Phase-in, and 4411 for Final) demonstrate that a student has a 75% likelihood of earning a C or better in any entry-level college course. * *Source: TEA ( Algebra I EOC s Geometry EOC s Algebra II EOC s Year of student s first Math EOC Test Geometry EOC Standards Phase-In Geometry EOC s Year of student s first Math EOC Test Algebra II EOC Standards Phase-In Year of student s first Math EOC Test

For example, if a student took the Biology EOC in, then he/she will be held to the first set of phase-in performance standards ( = passing ) for all of his/her remaining EOC science tests. For students at or above the Recommended High School Program for graduation, the cumulative score requirements for science are determined as follows: Phase-in 1: 3 = 10,500 Phase-in 2: 3 = 11,250 Final Recommendation: 3 = 12,000 The category called minimum refers to a score that is below but is high enough to be included in the cumulative score students must achieve on the three assessments in each core content area. * *Source: TEA (

For example, if a student takes the World Geo EOC in, then she must meet the Phase-in 1 standards ( = passing ) for all of her remaining social studies EOC tests. The cumulative score requirements in social studies for graduation are determined as follows: Phase-in 1: 3 = 10,500 Phase-in 2: 3 = 11,250 Final Recommendation: 3 = 12,000 *Source: TEA ( US History EOC s 2016 Year of student s First SS EOC Test US History EOC Standards Phase-In Year of student s First SS EOC Test
