ENGLISH LANGUAGE LEARNERS PROGRESS INDICATOR
• Beginning with the 2011 accountability ratings, the English Language Learners (ELL) • Progress Indicator will be incorporated into the rating system as an additional
indicator. • Accountability Standard. At least 60% of ELL students tested must meet the
standard or the progress criteria on their assessment in order for the campus or district to be rated Recognized or Exemplary.
• Indicator Definition. The indicator includes current and monitored LEP students who are enrolled in at least their second year in U.S. schools, and who took at least one of the reading assessments [TAKS, TAKS (Accommodated), TAKS-M, or TELPAS].
• Student Groups. Performance is summed across grades for the All Students group only. A minimum size of 30 students is applied.
• Required Improvement and Exceptions. A campus or district may use RI or
Exceptions with the ELL Progress Indicator to attain a higher rating.

A Tale of Two SciencesWhy People are Confused
Students who enter Grade 9 in 2012-13 will no longer be able to take IPC as one of the four science courses required for graduation.
At this time there are no plans to remove IPC completely from the course offerings.
Therefore, beginning in 2007-2008 students working toward graduating under the DAP would only be able to use an IPC credit as an academic elective and
beginning in 2012-2013 students working toward graduating under the RHSP would also only be able to use an IPC credit as an academic elective.

A Tale of Two Sciences Why People are Confused
Under the RHSP, students must take biology; a choice of two courses from a list of options that includes IPC (through 2011-2012); and then a fourth science course.

A Tale of Two Sciences Why People are Confused
For students graduating under the RHSP, IPC cannot be taken as the final or fourth year of science and must be taken before the senior year of high school.

2010-2011Graduation Credit RequirementsSide X Side
ScienceRHSP Four credits: • Biology, AP Biology, or IB Biology • Chemistry, AP Chemistry, or IB Chemistry • Physics, Principles of Technology, AP Physics, or IB Physics • The additional credit may be IPC and must be successfully completed prior to chemistry and physics.

2010-2011 State Board of Education Graduation
Requirements FAQ– Volume One
ScienceRHSP A student may take IPC as one of the four science credits on the RHSP if IPC is successfully completed prior to chemistry and physics.
IPC may not count as one of the four science credits on the DAP.

2010-2011 State Board of Education Graduation
Requirements FAQ– Volume One
Science
If a student on the RHSP takes IPC in 2010-11 or later, the student will need to successfully complete credits in chemistry and physics after successful completion of IPC in order for IPC to count as a science credit.

2010-2011 State Board of Education Graduation
Requirements FAQ– Volume One
ScienceHigh school graduation requirements successfully completed prior to the 2010-11 school year shall count toward graduation in the manner established at the time the credit was earned.
Consequently, a student who successfully completed IPC and chemistry prior to the 2010-11 school year has satisfied the requirement that a student complete two out of the three courses (IPC, chemistry and/or physics).

TEA CorrespondenceJanuary 25, 2010
TO THE ADMINISTRATOR ADDRESSED:
The phase-out of Integrated Physics and Chemistry (IPC) was removed allowing students on the RHSP to continue to take IPC as one of the science credits if IPC is successfully completed prior to chemistry and physics.
Students on the RHSP must complete a biology credit, a chemistry credit, and a physics credit.

At what point does Chapter 74, Subchapter F actually take effect. In
other words, which graduating class(es) must take the biology, chemistry, and physics classes as outlined in the law? Do this year’s juniors still fall under the “grandfather clause” interpretation? Sophomores?
The rule has been biology, chemistry, and physics. IPC was a “bridge option” that was going to be phased out next year. The State Board removed the phase out language. Therefore, if a student completes IPC on the RSHP, he/she must take both chemistry and physics beginning this school year.
