Credit By Exam
Credit by Exam (CBE) for Acceleration is one method for students to demonstrate proficiency in grade level or course content. The Texas Education Code allows students to either accelerate a grade level (K-5) or earn credit for a course (6-12) without prior instruction based on credit by examination. School counselors can provide guidance on whether credit by exam is a good option for your student.
Credit by Exams with prior instruction are for credit recovery and are not covered in this program.
