Graduation Options
Students at Woodward Children’s Center have a variety of degree paths presented to them depending on the individual strengths of each student. We offer the Advanced Regents Diploma, Regents Diploma, Local Diploma, and the Skills and Achievement Commencement Credential.
The majority of our graduates leave with a diploma either local, regents or advanced regents. We also support students earning a skills credential. These past few years we have really concentrated on strengthening our vocational program. We have found that students are exiting high school and even college lacking skills necessary to be successful in the workforce. Our goal is to have every student leave with a CDOS as either a standalone or an additional credential along with a diploma.
