High School Students
DIPLOMAS
Diplomas are optional because in homeschooling you are not required to receive a diploma. DCA offers three types of diplomas. There is a fee for diploma printing. We will have a graduation ceremony at the end of the school year to award diplomas to Senior's graduating. There will be a fee for graduation ceremony, but the ceremony is optional.
