A student under 18 may be withdrawn from school only by a parent. The school requests notice from the parent at least three days in advance so that records and documents may be prepared. Less than three days’ notice may result in forms being mailed. A withdrawal form may be obtained from the school office.
A student who is 18 years of age or older, who is married, or who has been declared by a court to be an emancipated minor, may withdraw without parental signature. In all cases, withdrawal forms must be appropriately completed and signed before withdrawal is complete.
The school may initiate withdrawal of a student for nonattendance if:
- the student has been absent ten consecutive school days and repeated efforts by the school to locate the student have been unsuccessful, or
- the student is 18 years of age or older and has more than five unexcused absences in one semester.
