My question is lengthy. I am a senior in high school in the Jefferson County Public School district. I am 18 and have all “A”s. I have 100 period absentses both excused and not. I have asked my counselor a and resource officer if that affects me and they both said “as long as you keep your grades up you can graduate, walk, and be fine” is this true or can I as an 18 year old get in trouble for not going to class.
