Early Graduation

EARLY GRADUATION

Early Graduation is an opportunity for qualifying seniors to finish their senior year of high school by the end of the first semester. This opportunity allows interested students to get a jump start on post-secondary studies or a career.

TO BE ELIGIBLE, A STUDENT MUST:

• Be able to meet all graduation requirements by the end of their first semester senior year (including required core courses)

REQUIREMENTS:

• Approved Online and College Dual Credit courses will count towards required Cumberland Valley School District credits but these options may not fulfill NCAA eligibility requirements.

• The ending date for the early graduation student is determined on a case by case basis. A student attending college in the spring semester will finish CV no earlier than 3 school days prior to the start of the college semester. A student with no college commitment in the spring will finish at the end of CV’s first semester.

• A student meeting our district’s graduation requirements will receive a CVSD diploma in June along with the rest of the graduation class.

• Students interested in graduating by the end of the first semester of their senior year should see their counselor by March 1 of their junior year.

• Prior to pursuing higher education options, a letter of approval is needed by the Superintendent and School Board.

NOTE: It is the student’s responsibility to check with his or her college of interest about its policies related to enrollment and financial aid for early graduating students.
