 Any student enrolled in and/or receiving credit for an EOCT course, regardless of grade level,
will be required to take the EOCT upon completion of that course.
 For a student that entered in the 2004 thru 2010 school years, a student’s EOCT score is
averaged in as 15% of the final course grade. If a student entered in the 2011 school year, a
student’s EOCT is averaged in as 20% of the final course grade. The student must have a final
course grade of 70 or above to pass the course and earn credit toward graduation. When the

administered in two 60-minute sections. One or two-day administration schedules may be
selected.

If a student does not pass the EOCT the teacher will assess the students test and provide
remediation and review for all areas of weakness prior to the student re-testing in that subject
area.
