Final Examinations
In HISD, a final examination will be required in all state and
local credit courses, including PE and electives, unless a
school has a waiver approved by the HISD School Board.
To be exempted from final examinations, students must have:
1. Approved waiver,
2. Senior classification,
3. Eighty-five average or better in course,
4. S or E conduct average,
5. No more than three (3) total absences.
Approval is for second semester seniors only. Schools may
adopt a waiver to implement stricter standards than those
approved by the HISD, School Board, but must notify both
students and parents of the school's policy. A student who is
awarded an exemption from any final exam may not be counted
present for ADA funding purposes even though the student is
not required to be in attendance when the exam is given.
