The terms Academic Achievement Record (AAR) and Transcript can be used interchangeably.

OFFICIAL:

The words Official Copy imply that the AAR is transmitted directly from the school to an authorized requesting institution without the possibility of alteration.  A school district representative may also print or type his or her name and title and sign and date the AAR.

A transcript copy should be marked or stamped Official Copy only at the time of its authorized release from the school district directly to another institution or student-approved entity (i.e Military, employer, scholarship committee).

UNOFFICIAL:

A copy of the AAR provided to the student or parent/guardian, shall not be marked or stamped “Official” in any form.

The student or parent/guardian will be provided an “Unofficial Copy”, with the allowable district representative signature, and date.  A school must not alter the original AAR in any way when providing a copy to a student or parent/guardian.

Any stamp or mark is never put on the original file document, and must not be placed on the copy provided directly to the student or parent/guardian.

(TEC §26.004)

Diplomas are handled through the High School registrar – NOT Records Management.
