The Texas Success Initiative was enacted by Texas legislators for all public state institutions of higher education. The TSI Assessment (TSIA) evaluates students’ readiness for college-level coursework in reading, writing, and mathematics. Students participating in dual credit classes must meet the minimum passing standards to enroll.
The Blinn College District and the Columbus, Fayetteville, Flatonia, Schulenburg, and Weimar ISD’s recently launched a partnership designed to increase high school dual credit completion and establish seamless pathways toward postsecondary awards and industry credentials. The Alliance for College and Career Student Success (ACCSS) in South-Central Texas partners collaborate to advise students regarding their college and career pathways, including technical and career training options.
ACCSS will be offering a FREE TSIA Boot Camp the week of June 12 at Blinn College – Schulenburg Campus. Students who have recently graduated from eighth grade along with current high school students from partner ACCSS schools who are considering taking dual credit classes are encouraged to attend. Additionally, graduating high school seniors from ACCSS schools who are still needing to show college readiness to help determine which classes they will qualify to enroll in next Fall are invited.
