If a student cannot complete the school year because it becomes necessary for the family to move out of the city during the last 15 school days, the following procedures should be followed:

1. Completion of whatever work is possible for the semester is left to the discretion of the teacher and principal.  Teachers are not expected to give special final examinations, nor are they expected to arrange for special make-up work or special reports,
2. The student’s final grades are computed as of the student’s last day of attendance,
3. The school indicates on the grade report the recommendations concerning placement for the following year, and
4. The Lincoln Public Schools have no authority for placement in the receiving school.
