Thanks for the responses. Yes, she will attend a full year of Japanese HS and should be able to get some credit. I already checked with the powers that be about receiving credit for study abroad and she will be able to receive some credit. In all likelihood, these credits will be elective credits. My daughter already knows that she will have to double up on English and Math her senior year. We are more concerned about her being able to finish Precalc, American Lit and Chem. She is in AP World and is not going to take the 2nd semester online as she said that she wouldn’t be able to successfully do that in several months. In place of AP World, she is going to fulfill her Civics requirement before leaving.
Yesterday, I was also told that she would have to reenroll in her public HS upon her return. I am trying to work through these details as she doesn’t want to homeschool when she comes back. She is a very social person and likes being around other kids.
I don’t know if this makes a difference, but the reason my daughter is able to go to Japan is because she was awarded a national scholarship. As a single mother, I would not be able to afford the tuition. Do you think this might influence the Principal of her school to work with us to make this happen? My impression so far is that the counselors see this as a major pain.
