Did Maya Angelou graduate from high school at the age of 12?

No, Maya Angelou did not graduate from high school at the age of 12.

While she was a very bright student and excelled academically, she did not graduate high school until her late teens.

There is a common misconception that she did because she skipped several grades, but this is not true.

Perhaps this confusion arises from the fact that she became pregnant at 14 and gave birth at 15, which led to her dropping out of high school temporarily. She did eventually return and earn her diploma.
