His a** shoul not be in high school!!! In California where I am from we had to be graduating THAT semster to be allowed to go to school over 18, and 19 was the limit. After 19, boo-boo you had to take it to adult school. I saw many a fellow classmate have to transfer senior year. Here in the Lonestart state we still have people 21 and 22 in darn high school with 13 and 14 year olds walking around. His age is relevant but hey nowadays students can be 12 and do the same thing.

Ummm...a 20 y.o. should be a college junior rather than a high school junior. At least I was.

When we were in middle school, there was a guy like that (don't tell nobody, but he was actually my first kiss when I was in 6th grade

). He said he had been kept back like 2-3 times, and he also "started school late"

. The sad thing is that he was there when i got to that school, and when I was leaving 8th grade, he was JUST leaving too! He had his liscense and everything...he used to drive to school. I'll be DAMNED if I have a 16-year old 8th grader and I allow him to get his liscense...sheee, that's a privilege!

Obviously this person is in Special Education. They can remain in school through their 22nd birthday.
