The American High School Dual Diploma programme allows students to obtain two different high school diplomas by carrying out studies simultaneously at two schools: one in the country where they reside through presential studies, and the other, American studies, by following a virtual academic course. This permits students to obtain the US high school diploma which has identical value to one awarded at a presential course in the USA.

DUAL DIPLOMA PROGRAM
Dual Diploma Program
American High School is a fully accredited virtual high school in the USA which brings together students who cannot perform presential studies for different reasons. They may be students whose parents need geographic mobility, students who are athletes and need to compete regularly, students whose parents (or themselves) are famous, students with reduced mobility, among others.
The school has more than 2500 students and now, thanks to American High School Europe, it is also open to students worldwide.Our main objective at American High School Europe is to prepare future university students for today’s world. Therefore, we have created this programme both for educational enrichment and as a differentiation tool which can aid university access not only in the USA, but all over the world.
E-learning Program
American High School offers an innovative e-learning programme which, by employing new technologies in education, allows students to obtain their US High School Diploma from their home or educational centre. Therefore, the student will be able to interact at any moment, anywhere and on any electronic device (PC, laptop, tablet, mobile phone, …) in a safe, English, international learning environment, making possible what would be unthinkable some years ago.
With a program of studies where educative innovation is mixed with the use of new technologies, determination and supervision, a superior preparation is guaranteed to all students who wish to study university courses in their own country, USA or any other corner of the world.
Subjects included in Program
The American High School Dual Diploma Programme allows the validation of up to 17 out of the 24 credits needed to obtain a US High School Diploma in the state of Florida (depending on the country where the student is studying). This means, the completed credits obtained in the student’s country will be awarded to the student so that they only need to complete 7 extra credits at American High School, corresponding to 8 compulsory subjects.
