3-Year Graduation Procedure
A student who plans to graduate at the end of his/her junior year should commit him/herself to the program for early graduation no later than the end of his/her sophomore year and plan accordingly. Students who would like to be considered for three year graduation must follow this process: 
  • The student must discuss the request with her/his counselor at the end of 10th grade year to review credits earned and credits needed. 
  • In addition to 16 credits by the end of the 10th grade year,  students must meet national ACT College and Career Readiness benchmarks (Sub-scores of Reading – 22 or English – 17 Math – 19) or ACT Workkeys (Silver) and meet requirements for subject area tests. 
  • Students must choose and complete an endorsement area to graduate early. 
  • The student will be given an Early Graduation Application upon the counselor’s approval at the end of 10th grade year. This must be signed and returned by a parent at a scheduled conference. 
  • Following the review of the application and benchmarks met, an interview with the principal will be scheduled for final approval in the summer between 10th & 11th grade.
