Are you behind on credits? Worried about graduating on time?
Don’t want to attend Summer School?
Welcome to the Twilight Evening School
The Twilight Evening School program provides all AISD high school students with options for regaining lost credits. The program assists students at risk of dropping out by offering credit recovery from 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., Monday through Thursday. Students MUST be enrolled at their home campus and referred to the program by their school counselor.

Please see your counselor or Mr. Gonzalez in RM 109 to sign up.
Twilight attempts to increase graduation rates using several strategies:
- By recovering students who have dropped out and re-enroll them, offering extended hours (4:30-7:30 pm, Mon. – Thurs.) as an incentive to get back on track toward graduation.
- They offer extended hours to all students needing credit recovery to work on regaining course credit.
- They provide students an opportunity to recover attendance hours lost to absences.
*Healthy snacks are provided. Bus passes are available as needed. Child care is provided at some sites.
Self-Paced Curriculum
During Twilight’s extended hours, students can work on courses primarily utilizing the DELTA (self-paced) computer program. Schools may also offer instruction during these hours in a regular classroom setting (direct instruction). Subjects are to be determined by Twilight and campus administrators.
Students enrolled at and attend a school with a Twilight Program receive priority; however, referrals from all district high schools are accepted.
