How many staar tests can you fail and still pass into the ninth grade?

In Texas, students must pass the STAAR (State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness) tests in certain subjects to be promoted to the next grade level. Specifically, students must pass the STAAR tests for grades 3-8 in reading and math to advance to high school. However, if a student fails one or more of these tests, they may still be promoted based on other criteria, such as their overall academic performance and recommendations from teachers and administrators. It's essential to check with local school policies for specific promotion requirements, as they can vary.
