Students who graduate with the minimum number of requirements are not taking full advantage of career assistance at the high school level.  We hope that students will carefully choose elective courses that will teach them skills for possible jobs (Ex:  computer, business, math and other vocational courses).  We encourage all students to pursue education after high school.

Students are reminded to check with their counselors periodically.  Review of progress toward achieving graduation requirements will facilitate timely completion.  A student must have completed all graduation requirements to participate in the graduation ceremony (Board Policy 3430).
