HONORS PROGRAM
The students of Weirton Madonna High School may elect to take honors courses to further enhance their education. These courses are designed by the faculty to provide an in-depth analysis and study of additional topics within the curriculum. Students that successfully complete 12 honors courses may be eligible to graduate with honors. The student’s diploma and transcript will note that the student did complete the requirements of the honors program. In addition, at commencement, the student will wear a gold honors hood in addition to the regular cap and gown.
