SOL Academies and W!se Academies are offered in the fall and spring. Students who have questions about their diploma status should contact their school counselor. 

• SOL Academy is free and open to any student who passed a class in science, social studies, math, reading or writing but did not pass the end-of-course SOL test. 

• W!se Academy is free and open to any student who passed the economics and personal finance class but did not pass the W!se financial literacy test and needs a career and technical education credential to graduate.
