Twilight Program

Twilight was established in 2009 by the Board of Trustees to increase the graduation rate by allowing high school students the opportunity to recover credits, repair grades, and make up for lost attendance hours before and after school.

Program Overview

Twilight Program provides �鶹��ý ISD high school and selected middle school students with options for credit recovery, grade repair, and attendance make-up. The program assists students who are at risk by offering support during morning/after school extended hours, including Saturdays at some schools.
