When a student enrolls, any credits awarded by a non-accredited entity, including homeschool, will need to be verified by utilizing credit by exam (CBE).  All students will be provisionally enrolled based on previous academic records and will be CBE tested using TEKS-aligned, local assessments to verify credits.  Students will not be allowed to enroll in classes with a prerequisite in which the prerequisite has not been verified by a CBE.

Recommendations from TEA regarding Homeschool: TEA and Homeschool

Yes, Carroll ISD offers a yearlong foreign exchange program.  We do not admit students for one semester only. We only accept 11^th graders into our program, and students must return to their home country to graduate from high school.

All foreign exchange students must go through an accredited foreign exchange agency to be considered.  The agency will assist them with the Visa process. Our program accepts a maximum of five students per year to participate.

We would suggest contacting an accredited foreign exchange agency, as most local programs require an agency for placement. These following agencies have represented some of our current exchange students, and will be able to guide them through the process.

If a parent/guardian with joint or sole custody of a student lives in CISD boundaries but the student resides outside the district, you will fill out the Online Transfer Application and select the Guardian in Residence option for enrollment. For any questions, please contact Student Services.

• Guardian in Residence is defined by TEA under TEC, §25.001(b) as:  Student does not reside in your school district but has a parent who does and that parent is a joint or the sole managing conservator or possessory conservator of the student.
