Performance-Based Exit Option
This alternative route to graduation for eligible students who may not graduate with their cohort group because of credit deficiency, low grade point average or being overage for the grade. The program is not an option for early exit; it is designed to help students who fall behind graduate with their kindergarten cohorts and receive a State of Florida High School Performance-Based Diploma.
