Graduation Requirements
Graduation Exercises Participation in graduation ceremonies is a privilege, not a legal requirement. Graduating students will or will not be issued diplomas or certificates based on the approved district criteria listed under Graduation Requirements below. Additionally, students may be denied participation in graduation exercises for violation of Board policy, administrative regulations or school rules. Students may be denied participation in the graduation program based on their disciplinary history. In such cases, diplomas will be mailed to students. Students who do not earn a diploma or certificate will not be allowed to participate in the graduation ceremony.
Students earn a diploma by meeting the following criteria:
1. Students must maintain a 2.0 GPA for the seventh and eighth grade school years based on a 4 point system.
2. Students are in attendance 95% of their seventh and eighth grade years
The principal will have some latitude in cases such as prolonged illness and handicapped students. If you have questions or need additional information about the current attendance rate for your child or the status of your child’s eligibility for 8th grade graduation, please check with your child’s teacher or the school office.
