As I double and triple check senior records to ensure graduation is possible for this spring, I thought it would be a great opportunity to remind everyone of our requirements. Perry students need a total of 24 credits to graduate, divided in the following areas:
4 English (English 9, 10, 11, and 12)
4 Math (including Geometry and Algebra 2)
4 Science (including Biology 1 and Chemistry 1)
4 Social Studies (including Global Studies, US History, and American Government)
0.5 Physical Education
0.5 Health
1 Fine Art, Business, or World Language
6 Electives (can be comprised of any credit)
Students must also pass all 5 areas of the Ohio Graduation Test - Reading, Mathematics, Writing, Citizenship, and Science.
To obtain an Honors Diploma in the state of Ohio, a student must fulfill Ohio requirements. This is different from our graduation requirements or our recognition of cum laude, magna cum laude, or summa cum laude. There are two categories for an Honors diploma - academic or career-technical. Please look through the requirements, as they are different for the class of 2011 and beyond. For example, to fulfill the science requirement, you must take Physics. We have also listed the requirements for honors diploma in our registration guide.
As always, please see your counselor if you have any questions.
