Students who are not promoted will have only the privileges for their assigned grade. For example, a third-year student who is not promoted to junior status will not have unscheduled periods and will not be able to leave the building during lunch. A fourth-year student who is not promoted must attend school through the end of the year, and will not be able to participate in senior activities including senior assembly, senior voting, prom, and graduation.
