Final Transcripts: 

Final transcripts will be sent out by the end of June, 2018.  Final Transcripts will be ordered by completing the Senior Survey on Naviance.  The survey will be available beginning mid May.

 

Each graduate is given 3 free final transcripts.  One to ACC if needed, one to the university or college you will be attending in the fall and one unofficial transcript sent to the student's address we have on file.  Keep the unofficial transcript for your records.

 

ACC College Credit Hours:

If you took dual credit classes through ACC and plan to send those credits to your university, please understand that ACC will not release your college hours until they receive confirmation that you have graduated from high school.  Therefore, you must first request an Anderson transcript to be sent to ACC and then you must request ACC to send a final transcript to your university.

High school diplomas will not be given to students during the graduation ceremony. The official diploma pickup day will be on Wednesday, June 6, 2018, 9:00am-4:00pm in the main office.  After that date, diplomas may be picked up in the Registrar's Office during the summer hours listed below.  Diplomas will only be given to the graduate or the graduate’s parent/guardian.  Graduates may not pick up their friend’s diplomas.  All student obligations must be met before the diploma is released.  Student obligations include but are not limited to the following:
