On Monday September 22, 2008, our Board passed this Resolution opposing the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board's proposed uniform grade point average rules and calling for significant revisions and input from K-12 stakeholders that to date has been nearly entirely absent.
I urge other school districts and concerned citizens to adopt similar resolutions and to contact members of the THECB to urge reconsideration of the proposed rules. You can also send written comments to Natalie Coffey, Senior Program Director, Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, P.O. Box 12788, Austin, Texas, 78711 within 30 days of the date of publication in the Texas Register by October 4, 2008.
