Graduation Requirements

Ohio’s long-term graduation requirements take effect for the class of 2023. For students entering ninth grade on or after July 1, 2019, Ohio’s new high school graduation requirements provide more flexibility to choose a graduation pathway that builds on a student’s strengths and passions – one that ensures students are ready for their next steps after high school. Students in the classes of 2018 through 2022 may also use these requirements as a pathway to graduation.
