The State of Texas new graduation requirements were adopted by the Lewisville ISD Board of Trustees on December 14, 2009. These graduation plan changes will be effective in the 2010 - 2011 school year and include the following;
1. Dropping requirements for a technology applications class and a health class.
2. Reduces the required credits for physical education by 1/2 credit. PE related non-athletic credits is now 5 1/2 and the maximum number of athletic related credits that count toward graduation is 4.
3. Work related and Career/Technology courses no longer count toward PE. They still count as an Elective or a Science credit, depending on the course.
4. Students in External PE can earn up to 1 1/2 credits in PE.
5. External PE cost will be the same as the 2009 - 2010 school year.
* Middle School - $75 per semister or $150 for a full year.
* High School - $100 per nine-week period, $150 for 18 weeks or $250 for a full year.
These actions by the State and Lewisville ISD should help strengthen the North Texas Real Estate market.
