OK, so a lot of people have a recurring dream where you have to go back to high school because you missed a graduation requirement, even though you’re a grown-ass adult. But I’m curious if anyone knows what would actually happen in this scenario. Would they wave it off, or would you need to take a college class, or get your GED (or equivalent)? Any educators out there to enlighten us?

    There’s an age cap…

    I think it’s around 22 years old, you can’t be in highschool. Usually only comes up with significant special needs, because once out of school they may need to pay for a day program.

    However (and I’m sure this varies by location) once you leave public education, you can’t come back if you’re over like 19.

    You’d have to get a GED
