Beginning with the graduating class of 2015, students are no longer required to meet the exit examiniation requirements set forth in this section and State Regulation to earn a South Carolina high school diploma.
A person who is no longer enrolled in a public school and who previously failed to receive a high school diploma or was denied graduation solely for failing to meet the exit exam requirements may petition the local school board to determine the student’s eligibility to receive a high school diploma. The elimination of the exit exam (BSAP, HSAP) requirement is retroactive to the graduating class of 1990.
Spartanburg School District One has created a form that can be filled out by a petitioner who meets the requirements mentioned in the above paragraph. Please read this FAQ document, and if you meet these qualifications, fill out the Petition form and follow the directions for submission.
