State of Michigan & EGRHS Graduation Requirements

Only approved courses will be accepted for graduation.  Coursework taken anywhere but at East Grand Rapids High School must be approved in advance.

Students enrolling in summer school for credit must have prior approval from an East Grand Rapids High School counselor.

A student may repeat a course that they have taken and passed. Although both grades will be recorded, only the higher grade will be used in computing the GPA (grade point average).

Students lacking not more than one credit at graduation time will be permitted to participate in commencement exercises, provided they are enrolled in summer school for the necessary credit. The diploma will be withheld until all graduation requirements have been fulfilled.

Recognizing that a small percentage of students may be unable to meet certain Michigan Merit Curriculum requirements, a personal curriculum can be developed.
