The Adult High School provides a way for students to return to high school and earn the credits they need for their high school diploma. The State requires a student to complete either 18 or 24 credits to earn a diploma. The Adult High School offers students an opportunity to earn credits at their own pace with a flexible schedule. To earn a high school diploma, students must meet the graduation requirements, maintaining a 2.0 GPA on a 4.0 scale, and must pass required state exams. Clearwater Adult Education Center is fully accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools to issue standard high school diplomas.
There is a $45.00 per term tuition fee. There are two terms in a calendar year.
