I teach in a Dallas-area district (Grapevine-Colleyville is in Dallas-Fort Worth metro area). It is actually quite easy. We have students who take 8 classes during the normal school year, will take an evening class, and then take 1-2 classes in summer school.
Freshman year - 8 credits regular school, 1 credit evening school, 2 credits summer school = 11 credits.
Sophomore year - same 11 +11 = 22 credits.
Junior year - 8 credits. 22 + 8 = 30. And they only need 26 to graduate. We have students who do it.
