The deadline to ADD Dual Credit Courses to your schedule for 2020-2021 is May 28th at 4 pm.  Contact your counselor ASAP if you need to add any dual credit classes.  After this deadline, you will have to wait until your FHS registration day to request any additional dual credit courses.

Spring 2020 Dual Credit Grades - Current dual credit students will receive TWO SEPARATE grades this semester: One for FHS and one for ASU.  The FHS grade has been communicated by the district.  A passing grade will be a 100 and a failing grade will be a 69.  However, dual credit students will receive a true and accurate grade for Angelo State University based on the work they complete while remote learning.  The grade in Skyward is not reflective of the ASU grade.  For example, a student could receive a 100 for the FHS grade and a C with ASU for college credit. Dual Credit teachers are using Blackboard, Schoology or emailing students to communicate the ASU grade.  We just want to be clear that students still need to be working hard and completing all assignments because the work done in remote learning will directly affect the college grade they receive.  Please reach out to your teacher or counselor if you have any questions.

TSI Testing for Spring 2020

Please note that, due to extended school closings, all of the FHS and NGC Spring TSI sessions have been canceled.  If you signed up for one of those dates through MySchoolBucks using a credit/debit card, you will receive an automatic refund.  Those who paid through a checking account will be issued checks, so the process may take a bit longer for that refund. We will let you know how we will proceed with TSI testing going forward after the extended school closing.
