EARLY GRADUATION
The total high school experience is an important aspect of the maturation and socialization
process of any student. As a consequence, this privilege will be granted sparingly, and then,
only for one reason: to facilitate the early enrollment of a student in a college, vocational or
professional school or university, or early placement of a student in a specific military training
program or job.
The following points outline the high school early-graduation policy.
1)
The student must have completed all graduation requirements.
2)
The student must submit a dated letter from his/her parents (if under 18) or from the
student (if over 18) requesting that he/she be permitted to graduate early and stating
the plans necessitating early graduation. This letter must be filed with the building
principal before the end of the first week of their senior year.
3)
Students petitioning to graduate early must obtain Board approval.
4)
Students graduating early may participate in graduation exercises taking place at the
end of the current school year.
