Graduation

  • Our goal is to help our students meet the graduation requirements of Wickenburg High School. When a student completes the requirements for graduation, and follows the correct policies and procedures, he/she can receive that diploma and graduate with the Wickenburg High School graduates!

    The Grand Canyon diploma is a differentiated diploma offered after the completion of all required board examinations and GCD required credits. WVA students have the option to work towards this diploma, if desired, instead of earning a traditional diploma. This is the pathway students must take in order to graduate earlier than the traditional four years of high school.   Students must be willing to take Cambridge examinations at the scheduled times, and to score high enough at the benchmark standards throughout the school year to remain in this program.  

Attendance

  • We require our students to complete course assignments and tests each week, at a passing level, and the student is required to work at least 30 hours per week, and more if the weekly assignments aren't complete and passed.   Each student must submit a time sheet of the hours worked each week - signed by a parent.   Please know this is a state requirement, and we must enter your students' hours every week into the state data file for our school.    Students aren't marked absent with Virtual - they are marked for every minute they work all 7 days.   So, please help us and turn this in every Monday.   It is absolutely mandatory!
