HOW DOES IPC FIT INTO THE RECOMMENDED HIGH SCHOOL PLAN (RHSP)?

Texas Graduation Requirements for the RHSP include three credits of science. The State Board of Education encourages the Biology, Chemistry, and Physics sequence for students. Students going on to higher education and applying for scholarships and grants are strongly advised to enroll in the Biology, Chemistry, and Physics sequence. Data from the American College Test (ACT), Scholastic Achievement Test (SAT), National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS), and colleges and universities report greater success from students who take the Biology, Chemistry and Physics core curriculum sequence in science.
