Graduation Requirements

 

Adna School District believes in the statewide goal that students should be " prepared to become responsible citizens, to contribute to their own economic well-being and to that of their families and communities, and to enjoy productive and satisfying lives" (WA OSPI). To this end, there are certain requirements that all students must complete in order to graduate from the Adna School District.

"Beginning with the class of 2008, students will need to meet four statewide graduation requirements:

1) Earn a minimum of 19 credits in core classes.

2) Complete a Culminating Project (often referred to as a senior project) to apply learning in a particular area of the student’s interests.

3) Complete a High School and Beyond Plan that outlines how they will make the most of high school to earn their diploma and prepare for their next steps after high school.

4) Earn the Certificate of Academic Achievement or Certificate of Individual Achievement by meeting state reading, writing and math standards on the High School WASL, an assessment for students in special education or the Certificate of Academic Achievement Options. Until 2013, students can earn a diploma without a certificate if they:
- Meet the state’s reading and writing standards, and
- Earn math credits and test annually until graduation" (WA OSPI).
