Adult Diploma Program
Students ages 18 and older may opt to complete the requirements for an adult high school diploma. The diploma class is designed to assist adults in completing credits required for a high school diploma. (Depending on transcript evaluation, adult students may also consider GED preparatory classes or the California High School Proficiency Exam.)
Students must earn a minimum of 5 credits at San Benito Adult School in order to obtain the San Benito Adult Diploma.
