In order for HISD students to be promoted to the next grade level, they must show that they have learned what the State of Texas requires of all public school children.

Report Cards 

Six-week grading periods are used in all HISD Schools.  All schools will send report cards to parents six times during the year, shortly after the end of each six-week grading period. 

If a student is not progressing satisfactorily, parents receive a preliminary report at the midpoint of the grading period and at other times as necessary.  Parents must sign and return the reports.
