Earn a Diploma on Your Time
And on Your Terms
The High School Completion Program (HSCP) is a collaboration with local high schools. The program provides a path to a high school diploma for adults when a conventional high school education or specific classes have proven unsuccessful. Program participants include both those who have left school and students who remain enrolled in their partnering high school.
INDIVIDUAL GRADUATION PLAN – Each plan is as unique as the student for whom it’s written.
The HSCP Plan Manager and the student work closely together to identify the student’s long-range personal and career goals. They then develop an education plan that offers engaging, effective and relevant learning experiences that address these student goals while at the same time satisfying the high school’s graduation requirements.
“I’m 26 and dropped out of high school for reasons that seem pretty foolish now, but at the time made sense to my teenage mind.
I was surprised to learn there were programs like NEKLS’s High School Completion that could help me get an actual diploma. I was nervous when I signed up – it had been a long time since I’d been in school, and I was sure I wasn’t going to do well.
With the help of everyone I’ve worked with at NEKLS, I did a lot better than I ever expected. Everyone is very friendly and supportive. They went above and beyond what they had to do to make sure I stayed on track. They helped me with my math, which was always my weak area – and really helped improve my punctuation!
They helped me connect with a college and walked me through getting set up for financial aid. They even helped me with a gym membership, which is really important to me since I’ve always struggled with fitness. Now I’m starting a new job and will take college classes online. My goal is to work in IT. I couldn’t have done this without NEKLS. I feel better than I ever have.”
