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.
