HOUSE AUTHOR: Eissler et al.

SENATE SPONSOR: Van de Putte

House Bill 1949 amends the Education Code to establish the finality of an examination or course grade issued by a teacher and to prohibit anyone from changing that grade except on a determination by a school district's board of trustees that the grade is arbitrary, erroneous, or inconsistent with the school district's grading policy. The bill makes a determination by the board in such case not subject to appeal but does not prohibit an appeal related to a student's eligibility to participate in extracurricular activities.
