Mark Wahlberg, who stars in the new movie “Ted,”  is working to correct the one regret he’s held for more than 20 years — that he never graduated from high school.

Wahlberg made his mark as a musician, model and actor, but dropped out of high school as a freshman. Now, through a program at Snowden International High School in Boston’s Copley Square, Wahlberg hopes to have his diploma in less than a year.  Snowden’s Accelerated Learning Academy lets students complete course work toward a diploma online. Wahlberg will work on his diploma requirements while on the set of his latest movie, titled “2 Guns.”
