Relating to the development of a standard method of computing a student's high school grade point average.
HB 2321 requires Texas' education commissioner to create a standardized method for calculating high school grade point averages (GPAs). The method must give equal additional weight to honors, Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate (IB), and dual credit courses. School districts would be required to use this commissioner-developed method instead of their current systems. The bill directly affects all Texas public high schools and students whose GPAs are calculated under this new standard. It takes effect on September 1, 2025, unless passed with a two-thirds vote for immediate implementation.
