Graduation Requirements

Students must successfully complete all requirements of the educational program before they graduate. The High School Director and High School Advisors will review the student’s grades to verify that all requirements have been met successfully.  All textbooks, fines, detentions, and graduation costs (for example, payment for cap and gown) must be cleared before the student will be allowed to participate in the graduation ceremony or receive a diploma. SVA is unique, in terms of CCR and Service-Learning requirements. Directors will have the ability to override internal graduation requirements to ensure that students meet the NMPED credit framework.

Scheduling/Enrollment Requirements for all SVA High School students:

• enroll in a Math and English class each year
• enroll in a Science class for the first three years
• enroll in the Service Learning Program each year
• enroll in the Mentor 2.0 Program each year
