No high school diploma?
Check with your local Adult Education School... |
There are three (3) ways to get your diploma through the Adult
Education
Schools...
- GED METHOD: The applicant
must pass the GED Test with an average standard score of 450 for the combined five subtests
with a total of 2250 or more and with no score on any one test less than 410.
- COMPETENCY-BASED METHOD: This
option lets you complete a high school diploma through the adult education schools.
- This is for anyone who has not earned a high school diploma, ages 18 years or older.
Students who are 16-17 years of age must be officially withdrawn from a high school in
order to be eligible to enroll in this program.
- It takes approximately one year (five units at 30 hours per unit) to complete the entire
program. There are two phases: CB Classes and Career Goals. Go to http://adulted.k12.hi.us under
Literacy Programs for more details.
- CREDIT METHOD: Earning
the same number of credits required for graduation from a regular Hawaii high school.
- This option lets you complete your high school course(s) in an adult education school.
This might be
the path for you if you are short a few courses for graduation and can take the courses in your local
adult education school.
The fine print...
- High school diploma candidates below the age of 18 must be officially released from
a public high school in Hawaii and must also submit a Parent's Permission form prior to
enrollment.
