Graduation with Honors

In lieu of class rank, which only compares students' grade point averages, Muskego High School has implemented a new three-tiered recognition system for the Class of 2019 and beyond.  The new system continues to recognize grade point averages; however, there is an additional emphasis on rigor, embracing the evidence that particpation in AP classes strongly correlates with college readiness, achievement, and completion.

Tier 1:  High Honors
            3.5 GPA or higher and 2 or more AP Classes

Tier 2:  Distinction
            3.75 GPA or higher and 3 or more AP Classes

Tier 3:  High Distinction
            4.0 GPA or higher and 4 or more AP Classes

These students will recieve gold tassels to be worn on their caps during the graduation ceremony.  The honors distinction will also be noted on the student's diploma.

Grade point averages and AP participation will be calcuated after seven semesters of enrollment.  

Photography

Empire Photography will photograph the graduation ceremony.  Opportunities to take your own pictures during graduation is limited.  Each graduate will be photographed as they receive their diploma.  Within one week of graduation, you will receive an email with a link to purchase prints from Empire Photography.  There is no obligation to purchase.
