Summary:
In 1942, US Presidential Executive Order 9066 ordered the interment of all persons of Japanese ancestry. As a result, students forcibly interned were denied their high school diploma as their education was interrupted. The revisions of Board Policy 6146.1 will allow Mt. Diablo to issue retroactive diplomas to those former students whose education was impacted due to World War II.
