TEA Coronavirus Support and Guidance Resources

TEA has created a Coronavirus Support & Guidance webpage. This will be your best resource for the most up-to-date, accurate information. I recommend visiting this webpage every day for the latest updates and resources. Additionally, TEA will be hosting a daily conference call with school superintendents in order to communicate the most up-to-date information.


If you are a high school counselor, you are probably wondering how to handle class ranking, gpa, graduation honors, etc. TASB has created an FAQ to give guidance on these decisions: https://www.tasb.org/covid-19-resources/grading,-graduation,-and-class-rank-covid-19-faqs.pdf. You will want to consult with your school's legal counsel to ensure that you are making legally-sound decisions and policy adjustments.
