This state approved program is designed to assist older students and students who previously withdrew to accelerate their progress toward graduation. Students in the evening school can earn one credit for a semester-long course. Students may earn credits in other ways including internships in possible career-related fields. Students may also transfer credits from the day program at Pinkerton. This type of diploma is available to students who are at least a junior and have been selected for the evening school classes in the PACE program.  There are also a variety of previously earned credits that Adult High School Students can use to earn their diploma.  

Pinkerton Academy Diploma

Students can use the PACE program to earn a Pinkerton Academy Diploma.  The Pinkerton Academy Diploma that is received through PACE is the same diploma that a student will receive from the Pinkerton Academy day program.  Students must fulfill the same requirements as they would in the day program, but they will meet the requirements by taking evening classes in PACE.  Students who earn their Pinkerton Academy Diploma through PACE will also be able to take day classes that PACE does not offer.  This will allow students to take a variety of classes and customize their high school plan.  

G.E.D. Program

At this time PACE is offering a G.E.D. Prep Program. This will begin in September of the 2008-2009 school year.  The P.A.C.E.
