  • The Graduation Pathways Program at Merrimack High School consists of two different opportunities available to MHS students and the community as a whole: The Extended Learning Opportunity Program and Adult Diploma Program. Please see the link below for each program.

  • Extended Learning Opportunites (ELOs)

     

    ELO Website: MHS Extended Learning Opportunities

    The Extended Learning Opportunity (ELO) Program allows students to earn credit outside of Merrimack High School through community partners, or within Merrimack High School by working with a teacher on a specific course of study or project. 

    ELOs at Merrimack High School fall under one of several categories: Independent Study, Advanced Study, Project Based Learning, Career Exploration, or Internships. Students seeking to participate in an ELO should contact the Director of Graduation Pathways to seek ongoing opportunities or arrange something targeted at a specific interest area. ELOs will require a student to work with a teacher facilitator or a community member, with credit being awarded as “pass/fail” or for a grade. 

    Please see the ELO web page for further details about the ELO Program.

  • State of NH Adult Diploma Program (ADP)

    The Merrimack School District offers a 20-credit adult Diploma that meets the State of New Hampshire High School graduation requirements. This Diploma affords a different pathway toward a High School diploma, separate from the Merrimack High School Diploma. This program allows current students, those who have withdrawn from Merrimack High School, as well as adults to attain their diploma using both traditional and innovative courses at Merrimack High School. 

    The ADP classes occur in the late afternoon and evening so that both current MHS students, as well as adult learners, have the opportunity to complete their high school diploma in a way that meets their learning needs. The courses for the 23-24 Fall Term will be available in late July.

    Please see the Adult Diploma Program for more details.
