Grad Lab Student Instructions - For STUDENT access to APEX.
As part of a new HISD initiative, all HISD high schools are now offering a new alternative for students in need of credit recovery: The Grad Lab.
Students enrolled in the Grad Lab have access to a variety of online credit recovery courses that can be completed outside of school at a student’s own personal pace. Tests and finals must be completed in the lab, which is staffed by a Graduation Coach tasked with enrolling students and then monitoring their progress as they complete coursework.
The Grad Lab is ideal for self motivated students who are:
- Seniors who might not meet graduation requirements by May.
- Students who are not classified as Seniors but who should be graduating in May.
- Students who failed three or more courses in the previous semester, especially 9th grade students.
- Students at any grade level who have been retained while in high school.
- Students who are overage.
