What is the 90 rule in Texas?

What Does The 90% Rule Mean For Your Child?

In addition to Texas compulsory attendance laws, districts are required to enforce the 90% rule which states that students in grades Kindergarten through 12th grade must attend a class for 90% of the time it is offered to receive credit or a final grade.

Texas Education Code Section 25.092 ~ MINIMUM ATTENDANCE FOR CLASS CREDIT OR FINAL GRADE

What Does The 90% Rule Mean For Your Child?

• In addition to Texas compulsory attendance laws, districts are required to enforce the 90% rule which states that students in grades Kindergarten through 12th must attend a class for 90% of the time it is offered to receive credit or a final grade. This rule applies even if your child has an IEP or 504 Plan.
  
  
• The average school year is 160-180 days. This means your child can only miss 16-18 days (or parts of a day) of school or 16-18 days (or parts of a day) of a specific class. If the school is on a semester schedule, this number is cut in half.
  
  
• A student who is in attendance for at least 75 percent, but less than 90 percent, of the days a class is offered, may be given credit or a final grade if the student completes a plan approved by the principal that provides for the student to meet the instructional requirements of the class.
  
  
• The 90 percent rule applies to all absences (excluding those exempt by law), including excused absences.
