Beginning in 2003, a new state assessment system, the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS), will be administered to students at grades 3 through 11.The graduating class of 2005 will be required to pass the new TAKS assessments in order to graduate. The PassAssured Pharmacy Technician Training Program may supplement the mathematics curriculum while addressing many of the TAKS objectives. We have correlated and documented the Grade 11 Exit Level Mathematics TAKS objectives with the training program. Educators may use these correlations as they develop lesson plans and prepare students to pass the TAKS.

The high school Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) are based on specific courses. There is no state-mandated course sequence therefore some of the high school TAKS mathematics objectives contain student expectations from eighth grade.
