That’s great news. Maybe there is a school counselor that can help this young lady. A million years ago or so, there were work permits issued. You went in and took your classes for a half a day and didn’t deal with the rest of the high school crap. You went to your job.I don’t know if this program still exists with the current attendance funding requirements.

The original article says she is studying AP courses. I find that admirable. But if it does, indeed, become a legal issue...she might have to get a GED and study on line. In fact, now that I think about it, I think there are an on-line high school courses in Texas?

Back years ago when school policy in this nation was made by sane persons there was also meritorious advancement at the Principal’s discretion. Meaning they could put you up a year or more ahead of others your age and grade level if you could do the curriculum at a higher grade level. I am 100% certain there are legal exemptions for this girl the school district and state can use to help her. Perhaps giving her the G.E.D. test is in the best interest of her and the state at this point.

Don't think she'll have to worry. She now has over $100,000 in a trust fund, and has been contacted by Stanford University.

She sure got the best of Judge Doofus!
