The handbook is divided into four sections: Section I – Academic Planning, Counseling Services, and Course Information This section is designed to provide academic information for the 2013-2014 school year. This will assist in course selections that will help you meet your goals for the future, as well as help you satisfy graduation requirements. It is critical that you read carefully the requirements for your graduation prior to making selections. It is equally important to read through the course descriptions for courses that you are interested in taking in order to ensure that you have fulfilled all prerequisites. Course offerings included in this section are subject to availability of qualified personnel and meeting class size requirements. Section II – Operations Information This section is designed to explain all school rules and operational procedures. We encourage you to take some time to review this section of the handbook closely. Note: The Operations Information is developed in accordance with district board policy and the Student Code of Conduct. Please be aware that this information is updated yearly; however, policy adoption and revision may occur throughout the year. Any changes in policy or other rules that affect the Operations Information and/or Student Code of Conduct provisions during the school year will be made available to students and parents through newsletters and other forms of communication. Section III – Student Code of Conduct The Student Code of Conduct is a document that establishes standards of behavior for students. Its intent is to promote school safety and to create an optimum learning environment for all. Section IV – Parental Rights This section is designed to help parents navigate the educational system at BHHS. The term “the student’s parent” is used to refer to the parent, legal guardian, or any other person who has agreed to assume school-related responsibility for a student. The Barbers Hill Educational Planning Guide should serve as an important reference throughout the school year. If you or your child has questions about any of its contents, please contact your child’s counselor, assistant principal, or principal. 7 TABLE OF CONTENTS SECTION I: ACADEMIC PLANNING AND COURSE INFORMATION Graduation Requirements for All ............................................................................................ 11 Types of Credit ....................................................................................................................... 12 Grade Classification ............................................................................................................... 14 Graduation Requirements ..................................................................................................... 15 Foreign Exchange Policy ...................................................................................................... 18 Class Rank, Grade Point Average, and Grading Scales ........................................................ 18 Early Graduation .................................................................................................................... 20 Graduation for Students with Disabilities ............................................................................... 20 Weighted Grade Point Scale .................................................................................................. 22 Grading Guidelines, Makeup Work, Progress Reports, Report Cards, and Semester Exams .................................................................................................................................... 23 Tutorials, Summer School, Promotion and Retention............................................................. 27 Academic Counseling and College Planning .......................................................................... 27 Counseling Services............................................................................................................... 30 Bullying, Child Sexual Abuse, Psychological Testing and Treatment ..................................... 30 Dating Violence ..................................................................................................................... 32 Services for Special Circumstances ..................................................................................... 34 Course Descriptions: Language Arts ....................................................................................

There is something BHISD District Rating EXEMPLARY about the hand- ing of a baton by your teammate that elicits ex- ceptional effort. People would rather disappoint their own expectations than let the team down. Barbers Hill has been educating students since 1929 and it is one of the few dis- tricts that has maintained excel- lence throughout its long storied history. One of the drivers of this excel- lence is the determination of past and current leaders that the baton will not be dropped and that each graduating class will build on the past accomplishments and set the bar even higher. I am proud that the current staff and students are carrying on the proud traditions and excellence of “The Hill.” The challenge for the upcoming school year is simple: Make a great district even better! We truly have one of the best districts in the state and I cannot imagine a better place where students could get a better education.
