Overview of New Indiana Diploma

 

 Starting with the Class of 2029 all students in the State of Indiana are required to meet new graduation requirements. An overview of these requirements are described on this page.  

  • Graduation and diploma requirements are set by the state.  All schools issuing an Indiana diploma must meet these requirements.  Though schools and school districts may offer differing courses, they have no flexibility to change the basic diploma structure.
  • Though new required courses have been added, you will find increased flexibility for students. You'll also find greater encouragement for students to explore employment and enlistment readiness.  
  • The structure of the new Indiana Diploma is a “base” diploma that everyone will need to earn.  Optional Honors Seals may be added to the Indiana Diploma.  Honors Seals are earned through specific coursework, academic performance, work based learning, and attendance.  There are 6 Honors Seals options: Enrollment Honors Seal, Enrollment Honors Plus Seal, Employment Honors Seal, Employment Honors Plus Seal, Enlistment Honors Seal, and Enlistment Honors Plus Seal.
     
  • All students at North Central High School will begin on the Enrollment Honors Seal and a parent/guardian meeting will be required to opt out of the Enrollment Honors Seal.
