• In March, AMCS will communicate with the other high schools and inform the affiliate of the AMCS students who intend to participate in their ceremony.

• The Valedictorian and Salutatorian are selected each year from the graduating class. The Valedictorian ranks first in scholarship and is considered the top student of their class; the salutatorian ranks second in scholarship and is considered the second highest student in their class. Criteria are based primarily on weighted cumulative GPA. Thus, more than one student may qualify for the Valedictorian and Salutatorian distinctions. GPAs are calculated after the first semester of their senior year, and students will be notified of their honor status by the end of March. Students can only qualify for Valedictorian and Salutatorian if they are enrolled in AMCS at the beginning of their senior year.

• Diplomas will be distributed at the AMCS graduation ceremony for those seniors walking with AMCS. If you are not participating in the AMCS ceremony, you can collect your diploma from the AMCS Registrar after May 18th. 

The AMCS Graduation program and ceremony will recognize our graduating seniors with honor grad status such as cum laude, summa cum laude, magna cum laude, and Seal of Biliteracy.  Students may not be recognized for these awards by their affiliate high school.
