Diploma Seal Applications
Students meeting specific requirements for graduation and demonstrating exemplary performance may receive diploma seals for recognition. Qualification for three of those seals, the "Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Seal", the "Seal for Excellence in Civics Education", and the "Seal for Excellence in Science and the Environment" are determined, in part, by documentation of 50 hours of participation in work-based learning opportunities in a STEM area in grades 9-12 (for the STEM seal), 50 hours of participation in community service or extra-curricular activities with a civics focus in grades 9-12 (for the Civics seal), and 50 hours of voluntary participation in community service or extracurricular activities in grades 9-12 that involve the application of science such as environmental monitoring, protection, management, or restoration (for the Science & The Environment seal).
Please review the criteria for the STEM Seal, Civics Seal, and Science & The Environment Seal. If you believe you meet the specific criteria for one or more of these seals, please complete the surveys embedded in those links by 9:00pm on Monday, May 22nd. You must be logged into your PWCS Office365 account to access these surveys. These surveys will stop accepting responses at 9:00pm on May 22nd. Late submissions will not be accepted.
Final determination regarding the awarding of all diploma seals will be made in June.
The criteria for all diploma seals are posted on the VDOE website.
