To be promoted in grades 6-8, a student must attain an average of at least 70 in all core academic areas: language arts (including reading improvement if required), mathematics (including mathematics improvement if required), science, and social studies.
Students will be required to pass both science and social studies, in addition to all language arts and mathematics courses. For more information, please see page 7 in the KISD Intermediate School Handbook. All students received a copy on the first day of school or when they enrolled.
