I think this is a problem for certain groups (special needs, international students and other transplants) who come into the system late in high school and have trouble getting all their hours because of language barriers or other issues.

Please remember that not all families have the competencies and opportunities that you have. It's ugly to jump on people and judge.

There is a waiver process for transfers. [/quote]

And they pro-rate the number of hours required. [/quote]

Just coming here to say the same thing. It is prorated based on when the student transferred to MCPS.

To those saying of course MCPS will let a student graduate without the hours, this is incorrect. Completing SSL hours is a state mandated requirement for graduation. Students will NOT graduate with their class if they do not complete the requirements. At the high school where I teach we seem to have a few students every year who are completing hours the week before graduation. [/quote]
