GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS

It is the policy of the Board to provide learning opportunities and programs that are appropriate to the abilities, needs, and interests of the pupils in order that they may successfully complete an appropriate course of studies leading to graduation. The Board shall award the same high school diploma regardless of the program of studies completed by the pupils. A diploma, therefore, represents only the accumulation of credits; it is not a guarantee of acceptance into schools to further one’s education.

It is necessary that a student’s program complies with the laws of the State of New Jersey, with the requirements established by the Board of Education, and with sound principles of education before a diploma will be granted. In order to graduate, a pupil must:
