Finalize your graduation checklist! Fill out the 4 year form you are given today. The lighter writing is a typical plan to use for

your assistance in completing this. If you have had honors or AP please write that

instead of the typical plan. Sign and date. If 18, sign again

acknowledging this fact. You will receive the original back for parent

signature once a copy has been made. Parent signature, if under 18, is needed for this graduation requirement.
