    Report of 2012-2013 High School Graduates’ Enrollment and Academic Performance in Texas Public Higher Education in FY 2014 Texas statute requires every school district to include, with their performance report, information received under Texas Education Code §51.403(e). This information, provided to districts from the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB), reports on student performance in postsecondary institutions during the first year enrolled after graduation from high school. Student performance is measured by the Grade Point Average (GPA) earned by 2012-2013 high school graduates who attended public four-year and two-year higher education in FY 2014. The data is presented alphabetically for each county, school district and high school. The bookmarks can be used to select the first letter of a county. Then the user can scroll down to the desired county, school district and high school. For each student, the grade points and college-level semester credit hours earned by a student in fall 2013, spring 2014, and summer 2014 are added together and averaged to determine the GPA. These GPAs are accumulated in a range of five categories from < 2.0 to > 3.5. If a GPA could not be calculated for some reason, that student is placed in the “Unknown” column. GPA data is only available for students attending public higher education institutions in Texas. If a high school has fewer than five students attending four-year or two-year public higher education institutions, the number of students is shown but no GPA breakout is given. If a student attended both a four-year and a two-year institution in FY 2014, the student’s GPA is shown in the type of institution where the most semester credit hours were earned.

Perhaps few people ever realized that fact to the extent they do today. Beginning March 12, educators confronted a pandemic-induced challenge that is anything but a straight, flat path. In fact, it comes closer to resembling a sheer face of a cliff. There are no paths around it; so, starting that day the climb began, and more than six months later we continue up the mountain. The world is facing challenges greater than any faced in generations. Yet since confronting the base of that cliff, educators have clawed their way up inch by inch. I told staff at Region 10 at the start of the pandemic that we would survive it; we would learn a lot about ourselves; and we would be better because of it. Today, more than six months later, I see all three of those thoughts coming true. Consider words like hybrid, virtual, remote, zoom, asynchronous, and close contact, which are now everyday language. Some are new to our lexicon like “upper wear” – clothing worn above the waist that is acceptable for video conferencing, while others have taken on new meanings.
