TEA approval ensures that all TTU K-12 high school core curriculum courses meet the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) standards set by the State of Texas and that students will be prepared for the STAAR and EOC exams. We offer more than 200 individual courses, all based on a completely asynchronous, self-paced online framework.
