A student will be allowed to graduate with his or her class at the school's commencement exercises only when all graduation requirements have been met. A senior failing any subject at year-end will not receive his or her diploma until the requirement is met. The student must complete his or her requirements in summer school. In addition to fulfilling academic requirements, all financial obligations must be met prior to graduation.
