PHOENIX HIGH SCHOOL
Phoenix High School exists to serve the needs of high school students who
prefer a non-traditional setting or who need to retake failed classes. The
academic year is divided into four nine-week mini-semesters. Students may
contact Phoenix High School to find out about the cost of the classes. Phoenix
is accredited by the Southern Association of Schools and Colleges. Prior to
registration students must consult a counselor to obtain a signed course
registration form. Students who have withdrawn from their home school in
order to attend Phoenix on a full-time basis may not participate in the
graduation ceremony of their home school. Phoenix students participate in the
Phoenix graduation ceremony upon completion of course requirements. In
order for a full-time Phoenix student to graduate from his/her home school, the
student must withdraw from Phoenix and enroll in his/her home school for the
student’s entire final semester of high school.
