Prior to graduating from TBCA all students must score in the 30th percentile or above on a standardized test in reading and math. Normally, this score will be the one achieved on the 11th grade achievement tests. If a student fails to meet the minimum score at that time, the Director of Education will work with the student on alternative options. Parents of any student who does not meet the minimum in his/her junior year will be notified.
