Is dropping English in a final term in High school okay?

Our local high school has a trimester system and English is only required (or in fact available) for two tris of the year. So in our case 2 tris is a year of English. If this school requires 3 tris to complete a ‘year’ then dropping a tri could certainly be a problem. In fact I am surprised the school would let the child graduate if this were the case. Don’t most states have a minimum requirement for graduation? I would err on the side of caution and stick with the class.
