High School Forced Graduation?

I am currently a sophomore. At the end of this year, I will have 42 credits, and 4 classes left to take to graduate with honors. That’s all right and good, but I am moving this summer. Could my new school force me to graduate next year, or am I just being unnecessarily worried?

Lots of students have more than the minimum number of credits to graduate. I don’t think you’ll have a problem. Just be sure that there will still be challenging courses to take or a DE pathway at the new school.

I’ve much more often seen it the other way (student wants to graduate early and school won’t permit it).

But you could/should talk to your new school explicitly and say something like, “I realize that I may finish most of our graduation requirements early, but I feel I have so much more to learn here, so I hope it will work for me to continue throughout the usual junior and senior years. Do you have suggestions for classes to round out my program by the time I graduate in 2021?”

I would try to do a dual-enrollment program to get free college credits (if you are up to it)
