Graduation Requirements

Before a student is issued a diploma, counselors must verify that they have met all graduation requirements. Counselors will be working closely with teachers to make sure students are passing and will reach out to students/families that are in danger of not passing a course required to graduate.

A senior with 20.5 credits earned by June 7th may participate in the graduation ceremonies with the understanding that graduation will not officially occur until 22 credits have been earned.

Students having earned less than 20.5 credits will not be allowed to participate in graduation ceremonies.

If you have any questions or concerns about credits, please see your counselor to get clarification as soon as possible.

In order to earn a Memorial diploma a student must have earned 22 credits, including the following:

English – 4 credits
Social Studies – 3 credits
Science – 3 credits
Math – 3 credits
Humanities – 1 credit
PE – 1.5 credits
Health – 0.5 credits
Financial Literacy - 0.5 credits
