Should a parent elect to disenroll his/her student from LAHS in the final three weeks of the semester to attend another high school at the beginning of its new semester, LAHS will not grant credit for the student’s course work until the student has taken the final exam for each of his/her classes.
It is the responsibility of the student and parent to make the necessary arrangements with LAHS teachers and the new school personnel to complete semester exams for each class before a final transcript reflecting the semester’s credit can be issued to the new school’s registrar. Students leaving prior to the final three weeks of the semester will carry their current grade for each course to their new school.
