Lawton-Bronson Community School District
Full Text
Summary

The appellant seeks reversal of a decision made by the Lawton-Bronson Community School District board denying his request for his daughter's early graduation.

The board adopted a graduation policy requiring the completion of 36 academic semester credits and one PE credit, and out-of-district credits were not allowed. The appellant challenged the policy of not accepting out of district credits and the content of the graduation policy.

No sufficient cause has been shown that would prompt the State Board to interfere with locally-established policies and practices.

The local board's decision is affirmed.
