Program Overview

The Green River High School Completion Program earns credits towards high school requirements and can be an alternative way to complete high school. It is primarily designed for adult students, 19 years and older, but students under 19 can participate under certain circumstances; see "How does age affect my participation?" under the Frequently Asked Questions for further information.

Successful students will meet the graduation requirements of Washington State and Green River College and will be issued an official State of Washington high school diploma.
