Eddyville Community School District
Full Text
Summary

The appellant seeks reversal of a decision made by the Eddyville Community School District denying his daughter early graduation.

The district's graduation policy is a student must earn 32 credits or 16 units and eight semesters of attendence. Waivers were granted to students with overriding exceptional need.

The appellant felt the district's willingness to waive the rule established a new rule, and that the district was discriminating against his daughter. He was unable to establish the validity of his argument in the record.

The local board's decision is affirmed.
