Students will be able to earn one or more endorsements as part of their graduation requirements. Endorsements consist of a related series of courses that are grouped together by interest or skill set. Programs are more specialized paths within the endorsement categories. They provide students with in-depth knowledge of a subject area. Students must select an endorsement and program in the eighth grade. Be sure to check out the Klein ISD Programs website for more information.
