Individual Graduation Plan

The Louisiana Legislature mandates that each student complete an Individual Graduation Plan (IGP) by the end of eighth grade. Within the IGP, students will indicate their postsecondary aspirations as well as career cluster and area of concentration interests. Students and Counselors can revisit the IGP each subsequent year to ensure that the student’s interests are still accurately reflected and that their completed course work and standardized test results put them on track to reach their goals.

Graduation Requirements

Students in Louisiana can pursue two types of high school diploma, a College and Career Diploma or a Career Diploma. With a College and Career Diploma, students can opt for one of two courses of study – the more rigorous LA Core 4 or the Basic Core. Students can also earn an Academic Endorsement or a Career/Technical Endorsement.
