Students can also earn an Academic Endorsement or a Career/Technical Endorsement. 2019 - 2020 Graduation Requirements 2019 Graduates & Beyond: Beginning with the graduating class of 2018, students will choose one of two paths towards a high school diploma. The traditional "college route" will be known as the TOPS University Diploma and the updated and more rigorous "career route" will be known as the Jump Start TOPS Tech Career Diploma. Under the guidance of school counselors, teachers, and parents, students will opt-in to one of these diploma pathways at the end of their sophomore year. The TOPS University Diploma will prepare a student for post-secondary work at a college or university. This diploma is also directly aligned with the TOPS University Scholarship, meaning that all graduates earning this diploma will have taken the courses necessary for the award. | After School ProgramsEach of our high schools has numerous after school activities for students.
