Grades/Attendance
Grades
Grades shall reflect the student's understanding and mastery of
the essential knowledge and skills of each course. Assignment
of the grade by the teacher is certification of the degree of mastery
of the essential knowledge and skills. A grade below 70 indicates a failure to master the essential knowledge and skills. Grades above 70 reflect varying degrees of mastery above the minimum.
Attendance
Students must live in the boundaries of the Plano Independent School
District in order to attend one of the district schools. The Plano ISD Board
of Trustees establishes attendance zones for each school. Each student
is required to attend the school in the attendance zone in which
the student's family resides. The rapid and often unpredictable
growth in the Plano area has made it necessary for the board to
change attendance zones from time to time. Changes are usually made
to maintain reasonable class sizes at the existing schools until
numbers of students in a certain location can justify the expense
of construction of a new building. In the interim, the board attempts
to use existing facilities with minimal inconvenience to staff and
students.
