It allows certain students to attend their senior year in the district in which they completed their junior year, even if they move out of the district. The student must have been a resident of the school district at the time of attaining senior status.
Senior status is decided by each school district.
In some school districts, a student attains senior status upon completion of the junior year. In others, a student attains senior status when the student has earned a specified number of credits. If a school district does not have a policy or established practice for defining senior status, the assumption is that senior status is attained upon completion of the junior year. It depends on when the student moves and when the student attains senior status. If the student moves out of the district before attaining senior status, the student must apply for open enrollment in order to attend the district in her senior year.
