The Endurance Program is designed to provide an attainable path for students who are credit deficient and not on track for graduation with their grade-level peers to experience academic success and earn a high school diploma. This program uses the GED test battery to measure academic proficiency in lieu of students earning high school credits, and students are able to earn a diploma from their home school.

Outcomes & Deliverables
