At Mile High Academy, graduation requirements and diploma policies are carefully outlined:

Students entering Mile High Academy after ninth grade are required to furnish official transcripts from their previous school.

The academy reserves the right to assign courses to students that may have been taken elsewhere if deemed necessary or beneficial for fulfilling our graduation standards. Administration will make determinations regarding the acceptance of courses from previous schools to meet Mile High Academy’s graduation requirements.

Mile High Academy’s standard practice is to award college prep diplomas. While general diplomas are not typically issued, families may request one in writing, signed by both parents and the student.

Graduation from Mile High Academy signifies the successful completion of at least 220 credits and all other graduation requirements.

Only students meeting this standard or granted special permission may participate in graduation exercises hosted by the academy.
