It’s all about the TAKS test. If graduating seniors don’t pass it, some schools don’t allow them to walk for graduation.

I've seen it on very official bulletins, supposedly written by people who should know better. There is definately something wrong somewhere......; 12:52 PM, May 27, 2007

If the kids studied and paid attention, they could pass the TAKS test. If they cannot play because they did not pass, then they should not walk across the stage.; 5:46 AM, May 28, 2007
