• Portland Public School District Diploma/Certificate Options

    It is the goal of Portland Public Schools to support all students in achieving high academic standards and earning a high school diploma. The district recognizes that for a small number of students a modified diploma, extended diploma, or alternative certificate is the best way to make meaningful academic gains and successfully transition to post secondary connections. Below you will find information on the requirements for meeting the criteria of each option. Choosing the right option for you or your student will have life-long implications. It is essential to be well-informed.
