    For students enrolling from private/homeschool who have received prior instruction:

     

    Assessment for grade placement is a process available to students who are currently enrolled in the Alvin Independent School District. A child must be five years old or older by September 1st of the current year in order to be eligible to take the grade placement exams. The parent must complete and submit the application form for grade placement to their zoned campus office. A student may be assessed for grade placement only one time during any year.

     

    Review of the Application and Results: A central committee comprised of a teacher, a campus administrator/counselor, and/or other campus staff will review the application form and all of the results to make recommendations for placement. All decisions are final.
