Graduation Requirements

eAchieve requires students to earn 22 credits for graduation and aligns with the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction’s High School Graduation Standards for course requirements.

Some subjects require specific courses to be completed. Please see this chart for specific course requirements.

Earned Credit

Students earn 0.5 credit for each course they complete with a passing grade, and credit is earned on a semester basis. Students must successfully complete 1.0 credit in core subject areas of English, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies to move to the next course level. Successful completion is defined as earning a passing grade of D or higher.

Credit Recovery

Credit Recovery is available in year-long courses, and allows students to make up credits that have been lost due to a course failure.  

Advanced Placement Program

eAchieve participates in the Advanced Placement program run by College Board. Advanced Placement allows students the opportunity to take college-level courses while in high school, which can help students improve writing skills, sharpen problem-solving techniques, and develop study habits necessary to be successful in college. Each year students have the opportunity to take the AP exam for their course(s), allowing students to potentially earn college credit, test out of classes, and enroll in higher-level courses as a 1st year college student. The amount of college credit received varies by college, the AP score, and the subject.

Early Graduation

Early graduation at eAchieve is possible. If you are interested in exploring this option, please inquire with your School Counselor.

Special Note

Current School District of Waukesha students transferring to eAchieve for their senior year will still need to meet the 25 credit graduation requirement from their face-to-face high school plus the Service Learning requirement. While we do transcribe credits earned at other institutions prior to enrollment at eAchieve, students must earn a minimum of 4 credits at eAchieve to qualify for an eAchieve diploma.
