Promotion From Ninth Grade...
Administrators from Wisconsin Rapids Area Middle School and Lincoln High School will determine which students with credit deficiencies will be allowed to attend Lincoln High School. Ninth grade students considered credit deficient will be reviewed on a yearly basis. Each student will be evaluated on the credits earned, the required classes passed, the skills developed and the predictability of success at the high school.
Ninth grade students not enrolled for the first term at Lincoln High School will remain at their junior high school for the entire ninth grade academic year. Term transfers will not be allowed.
Remember This About Graduation...
All graduation requirements and student obligations (fines, detentions, etc.) must be met before a student may receive a diploma or participate in the graduation ceremony. Appeals related to requirements, graduation, or participation in the graduation ceremony are subject to review by the high school principal.
