Graduation Information

The American Diploma Project- In 2001, Indiana was one of five states (along with Kentucky, Massachusetts, Nevada, and Texas) selected to participate in the American Diploma Project. This national initiative was created to ensure high school graduation standards and assessments across the nation accurately reflect the knowledge and skills that colleges and businesses really require of high school graduates.

The Indiana State Board of Education has adopted course and credit requirements for earning a high school diploma. The newest set of requirements went into effect for students who entered high school in the fall of 2012 (Class of 2016 and below). Under current requirements, students have the option of earning four diploma types:

-Core 40;

-Core 40 with Academic Honors (AHD); or

-Core 40 with Technical Honors (THD).
