Graduation Requirements

Graduation Requirements

Graduation requirements are a set of core classes that all students must take to receive a high school diploma. Granite School District requires that students earn 27 credits to graduate from high school. Credits begin to accrue in 9th grade. Earn all the required credits each year to stay on-track to graduate. Most students will graduate with more credits than they need, and that’s great! Graduation requirements are minimal requirements, so by taking more classes than what’s required like college prep, GTI, and concurrent enrollment courses you can maximize your high school experience.
