| Abstract | This study examines the relationship between two secondary End of Course (EOC) exams, the Biology EOC and the English I EOC exams, and their impact on Emergent Bilingual (EB) students in a small district in South Texas. This study is a mixed methods study which uses both quantitative and qualitative data to answer three research questions: (a) What are the passing rates for Emergent Bilinguals taking the Biology EOC exams and the English I EOC exams? (b) What is the relationship between Emergent Bilingual's performance on the Biology EOC exams and the English I EOC exams? (c) What do Emergent Bilinguals identify as being helpful in passing their Biology EOC exams and the English I EOC exams? The quantitative portion of this study examines the data for the passing rates and the results for both the Biology EOC exams and the English I exams. The quantitative portion will use the Pearson Correlation Coefficient methodology to answer the first two research questions and will detail the EBs performance on the two EOC exams both individually and as an entire group. The qualitative portion of this study uses the Subtractive Education concept in explaining factors which affect the EBs performance in secondary education. The qualitative portion also consists of individual interviews of five participants at the secondary level who have taken both exams. These interviews allow for an examination of prevalent themes which guide the research in answering the third research question on which methods assisted the participants in identifying factors which assisted the in successfully passing their EOC exams.
