Wellington ISD board sets 60-point passing standard for UIL Level One classes
Summary
The Wellington Independent School District board approved a 60-point minimum for "Level One" courses to qualify students for UIL activities, adopting a list that includes advanced, Pre‑AP, AP and select science and math courses.
The Wellington Independent School District Board of Education voted Sept. 8 to require a minimum passing score of 60 in designated "Level One" classes for students to be eligible for University Interscholastic League (UIL) activities. The proposal was moved by Alison Strickland and seconded by Gene Pena and passed unanimously.
Board documents list Level One courses covered by the standard: 6th‑grade Advanced Math; 7th‑grade Advanced Math; 8th‑grade Algebra I (8th Advanced Math); AP Economics; dual‑credit courses; Physics; Pre‑AP Algebra I; Pre‑AP Algebra II; Pre‑AP Biology; Pre‑AP Chemistry; Pre‑AP English 1; Pre‑AP English 2; Pre‑AP Geometry; Pre‑Calculus; and Spanish 3. The change was made “as recommended by Shannon Fisher, junior high principal, and Jermaine Cantu, high school principal,” according to the motion language.
Administrators said the standard aligns eligibility with classroom expectations and was presented as a recommendation from building principals. The motion carried unanimously; the minutes record no further discussion or dissent. The decision will apply to UIL participation and is recorded as an official board action.
