Academic and Graduation Requirements:

Each King's Academy high school student is required to take one Bible class each semester he/she attends King's. Transfer students are not required to make up Bible credits, but will be expected to complete one credit in Bible for each semester he attends King's Academy.

The state of Indiana requires a minimum of 40 credits to graduate from high school. It should be carefully noted that TKA expects its students to do more than meet the minimum requirements for graduation. Therefore, The King's Academy requires each student to graduate with 48 credits.

All high school students are expected to carry a load of seven classes daily. However, it is recognized that some students may find it difficult carrying a full seven hour class load and need to drop a course in order to pick up a study hall.

The King’s Academy is a school that values the parents’ primary role in educating their children and will heavily consider their input in deciding their student’s schedule.

A student who spends all four high school years at TKA would normally have 48 to 52 credits upon graduation. Credits can be earned only if a grade of “D-” or higher is earned.
