Graduation Requirements Loretto is fully accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools since 1928. Graduation requirements reflect standards above current state levels. Still, students need to consider that some college programs require more years on specific subjects. Students carefully select electives according to the requirements of the college catalog of choice. As a college preparatory high school, Loretto Academy provides guidance to assist students in their plans after high school.
Freshmen learn about study skills and course planning through discussions held early in the year.
They are encouraged to push themselves for receiving and maintaining good scores throughout the year. Sophomores are given guidance in decision-making and standardized test preparations. They are provided introductory information on making choices and plans for college. Juniors are invited to talk with university and college representatives who visit and recruit on campus year around. Each student meets with her counselor to begin the process of selecting a university and field of study.
