Transform Your Education with LA STEAM Academy’s Dual Diploma Program

Earn a Dual Diploma and Prepare for Global Success

Graduate with two diplomas: yours, plus an American or Canadian high school diploma, without repeating high school.

For students anywhere in the world alongside their local school.

Principal’s Message

Dear Parents and Students,

Welcome to LA STEAM Academy. We help students earn a second high school diploma, American or Canadian, alongside the one from their own country, without repeating high school.

When your child applies, our advisors review their transcript to see which credits transfer; they then complete the remaining courses online, around their regular school. The Canadian diploma is earned in partnership with a school inspected by Ontario’s Ministry of Education; the American diploma is earned through our U.S. program. We cap enrollment at 200 students worldwide, so every family works with an advisor who knows their child by name.

A second diploma isn’t a shortcut, and no program can promise university admission. What it offers is a credential that admissions offices already know how to read and years of genuine academic work in English.

Ready to begin? Click Apply Now and let us know which program interests you. If you have any questions, use the message box or ask to schedule a call. I’m happy to help you decide which option is best for your child.

Warm Regards
Tanya Mizrahi
Principal, LA STEAM Academy

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What Makes a Dual Diploma Different from a Regular High School Diploma?
    A dual diploma gives you two qualifications: your home country diploma, plus a high school diploma from the U.S. or Canada, issued by LA STEAM Academy or our Ministry-inspected Canadian partner school. Coursework is completed through accredited schools, with official transcripts for every course. It’s different because it gives you a second diploma that universities in Canada, the U.S., Europe, and Australia already know how to read, without adding years to your studies.
    Will the diploma from the US or Canada facilitate University acceptance?
    Both US and Canadian high school diplomas are accepted by the association of colleges and universities around the world. While they do not guarantee acceptance, they can improve your application. They show that you are ready for higher education.
    How can a dual diploma from an international program enhance my future opportunities?
    A dual diploma program can help you stand out. It gives you skills that are useful around the world. You will also improve your language skills. This unique academic background is attractive to universities and employers. They often look for well-rounded candidates like you.
    How does a dual diploma program prepare students for the global workforce?
    The online high school experience offers more than just a diploma. It helps students build self-discipline and digital skills. They also learn to adapt to different cultures by seeing a variety of viewpoints. These skills are important for working in today’s connected world.
    What are the benefits of pursuing a dual diploma program in high school?
    Benefits are having a US High School Diploma along with American students. You can also improve your bilingual skills. This will help make your university applications better. It will also help you develop a global mindset, all while you are in high school.
    What are some common misconceptions about dual diploma programs?
    Our students take real courses with accredited schools, taught and graded by certified teachers, with an official transcript for every course completed. A high school diploma from Canada or the U.S. makes a student more marketable to universities in Canada, the U.S., Europe, and Australia because it’s a credential they already know how to read, with no foreign-diploma evaluation needed
