It’s May 10, and on this date in 1869, the Transcontinental Railroad was completed when a golden spike was pounded into the ground at Promontory Summit in what was then known as Utah Territory. The railroad made cross-country transportation much easier, and American School can make earning an accredited high school diploma easier too, especially if your education has gone off the rails over the years. We are proud to serve students of all ages who need to earn a high school diploma at home, and it’s never too late to graduate. Our high school correspondence courses and online high school courses are designed for students of all ages and may be completed from the safety of your own home or anywhere else you wish to work on them from one end of the continent to the other. Get back on track and enroll with American School today!
