To provide special recognition for the service and sacrifice of military veterans of WWII and the Korean War, the Public Act 181 of 2001 authorizes the board of a Michigan school district to award a high school diploma to a WWII or Korean War veteran. The law permits a WWII veteran who left high school between December 16, 1940 and December 31, 1946 for immediate military service and did not subsequently receive a high school degree to now apply for a diploma. Korean War veterans who left high school between June 27, 1950 and January 31, 1955 may also apply. Family members may also apply on the behalf of a living or deceased veteran.
The application requires a copy of the veteran’s discharge from military service indicating honorable service between the dates of December 16, 1940 and December 31, 1946 or June 27, 1950 and January 31, 1955. The applicant’s signature certifies the remaining information.
Traverse City Area Public Schools is pleased to be able to award a high school diploma to veterans who meet Public Act 181 criteria. For more information, please contact Mary Beth Stein at (231) 933-1718.
