Student success means graduating students from high school fully prepared for college and the world of work.

All Rhode Island public high school students must successfully complete a rigorous diploma process that demonstrates their proficiency in core content knowledge and applied learning skills prior to graduation. Additionally, all public schools must employ a variety of support structures to help students complete the process.

New graduation requirements go into effect for the Class of 2014. The new graduation requirements will effect current freshman, the Class of 2015, and future classes. More information will be added to this section soon.
