Changes in Graduation Requirements
HB3, passed in July, has made major changes in the graduation requirements for Texas. Principal Fraley announces these and the implications for BTW students in the following letter to parents:

Letter to Parents regarding graduation requirements

Credit by Exam
To all students taking Credit By Exams and/or Correspondence Courses during the summer: Do not request your exam(s) until after August 6, 2009. This will ensure that a Proctor is available at the school to administer that exam(s). Texas Tech will only allow a school official to administer credit by exams or final exams for correspondence courses.

SAT Math Prep Opportunities
Both Conrad HS, DISD and UT Arlington, Ft Worth Center are offering SAT
Math Prep for any high school student. No Pre-Registration is necessary.
