Wisconsin High School Diplomas for Wartime Veterans

Your local Wisconsin school board, with help from the WDVA

High school diploma awarded

If you left high school to serve during a wartime period, your local Wisconsin school board will award you a high school diploma. You can still get one if you already earned a High School Equivalency Diploma or GED, and a diploma can be awarded after death to an eligible veteran.
