Beginning in the spring 2012, the State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness (STAAR) began phasing out the Texas Assessment
of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS). At high school, grade specific assessments were replaced with five end-of-course (EOC) assessments:
Algebra I, Biology, English I, English II, and U.S. History.
The TEA states the purpose of the EOC assessments is to measure students' academic performance in core high school courses and to
become part of the graduation requirements beginning with the freshman class of 2011-2012. To graduate, a student must pass each
individual EOC at Level II: Satisfactory Academic Performance. The STAAR graduation requirements apply to students first entering
the ninth grade in fall 2011 and after. All other high school students will graduate under the TAKS program.
