It is true that once you turn 18 the law begins to recognize you as an adult. The legal term for this is “age of majority.” For Springfield High School to begin to recognize these rights, we need to be formally notified by you that you have reached 18; when you reach your birthday you can complete an “Age of Majority” Form and have it put on file in the Main Office. Once that has happened, we will begin to recognize your Age of Majority status.
