If you’re graduating high school in three years, here’s how to correctly enter your dates of attendance and organize your coursework in STARS.
Entering Your Dates of Attendance
When adding your high school, use the dates that reflect your entire time in high school.
Example: If you started high school in September 2023 and will graduate in June 2026, enter:
From: 09/2023
To: 06/2026
Entering Coursework by Grade Level
Record your coursework under the following grade levels:
- First year of high school → 9th grade (e.g., 2023-2024)
- Second year of high school → 10th grade (e.g., 2024-2025)
- Final (third) year of high school → 12th grade (e.g., 2025-2026)
Alert: Please do not enter coursework under 11th grade if you are graduating in three years.
Tip: You can update grade level labels when entering coursework to make sure your years are assigned correctly.
