Registered with the State of Florida Department of Education as a private school, the administration is located in South Putnam County, 15 miles south of Palatka, Florida. Deseret Academy is a school serving students in grades 1 - 12, specifically providing academic high school credits for students wishing to earn their high school diplomas outside of the traditional classroom environment.
At least monthly, our students meet with Deseret Academy personnel in one of three ways: 1) physically, 2) through e-mail, or 3) by priority USPS mail to turn in previously assigned work and receive a new subject.
Each month following the receipt of school work, a progress report is issued. For students in grades 9 - 12, a current GPA and the number of credits completed in included.
Yearly, students are evaluated to determine courses needed for the coming year.
Once students start earning high school credits, a high school diploma is issued upon the completion of 24 credits. High school graduation with a cap and gown ceremony is held each year in May.
