GENERAL INFORMATION Graduation from Longview High School signifies that students have met the course requirements of the Texas State Board of Education and the Longview Board of Education to include passing all portions of the TAKS test. The counseling staff will make every effort to ensure that students are enrolled in the courses required for graduation. However, parents and students must share the responsibility for students being enrolled in the appropriate courses. Students can meet the credit requirements through one of several graduation plans. The specifics of each plan are listed in this guide. TRANSCRIPT SEAL All Longview High School students who graduate receive identical diplomas, but the Academic Achievement Record (transcript) will be stamped with the state seal reflecting the graduation plan completed by the student. The transcript will reflect the completion of a Recommended, Distinguished, or Minimum graduation plan. The Graduation options and program planning options are explained within this guide. PREFERRED GRADUATION PROGRAM If you take the courses needed to fulfill the Recommended High School Program or the Distinguished Achievement Program, you will be well prepared to enter college, the workforce, or both. These programs are approved by the State Board of Education and endorsed by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board as courses of study that will help you become better prepared for the future. All students entering the ninth grade after 2005 will be automatically enrolled in the Recommended Program. GRADUATION CREDIT REQUIREMENTS The credits listed for graduation under each of the state plans depict the minimum number of credits needed to complete state requirements. The Longview Independent School District requires that students accumulate additional credits in order to graduate under these plans. The required additional credits can be in any combination of state and local credits. Note: Longview High School does not offer all of the courses listed in the state graduation plans.
