Graduation Requirements
To promote and enhance student academic achievement and success, the school offers both a college preparatory and a college preparatory with distinction diploma. The school offers honors classes, Advanced Placement classes, and Dual Enrollment college courses with Point University.
Students are required to take Bible class each year they attend Young Americans Christian School. Students transferring to Young Americans Christian School must complete at least two units of Bible to meet graduation requirements. Students transferring from most Christian schools will have their Bible credits accepted. Students transferring to Young Americans Christian School as a sophomore (10th grade) will be allowed to use one earned elective credit in lieu of one Bible unit. Students transferring to Young Americans Christian School as a junior (11th grade) will be allowed to use two earned elective credits in lieu of two Bible units. Exceptions to this policy are made at the discretion of the School Administration.
