GEDO Option 2 Program The GED Option #2 (GEDO #2)
Program allows authorized school districts to use the GED test battery to
measure proficiency in lieu of high school credit for students enrolled in
an alternative education program.
The Appleton Area School District utilizes a combination of credits and GED
test to measure proficiency.
A student who completes their required credits and/or passes the GED tests and completes the other
requirements for graduation is entitled to the traditional high school
diploma. The GEDO#2
instructional program is individualized based on each student’s needs.
Students are referred to the
program through each of the Appleton high school’s (East, West, North,
Central) Behavior Consultation Teams (BCT).
Students selected must be at least seventeen (17) years of age, one
year behind their 9th grade class in credits earned (12 or less
credits at the end of second semester of their Junior year), and able to
demonstrate an ability to read at or above the 9th grade reading
level. The program serves
older significantly credit deficient students who are not likely to earn a
diploma utilizing a credit attainment/recovery model and who would benefit
from a highly structured program offered in a small class setting.
Parents interested in having their child considered for enrollment in the GEDO #2 program should contact their child's guidance counselor at their current Appleton High School.
