Student Course Guide

Graduates

 

It is the responsibility of each student and his/her parent that requirements for an Advanced Studies Diploma, and a Standard Diploma, are met. School counselors review graduation requirements with students annually, and the school counseling staff at each school is available to assist you. Please work closely with your child’s school counselor in making academic decisions for your child. To determine the graduation requirements for your child, you must consider both the type of diploma sought and the year your child first entered ninth grade.
