The head guy of the school district has approved the field trips but the principal and administration at our school is being difficult. We have been fighting this battle for 3 weeks and now at the 11th hour they have given up. All three seniors on our team (including myself) are high honor graduates, (we have GPAs of 4.25 or higher) and one of us is in position to be the valedictorian. All three of us are in danger of not walking on graduation day. I just want to know how the rest of the community feels about this, why can't 4H teams be excused from school but the career center team can? We all went to the same place, and yet only we are being punished.
Thanks,

So what options do you have? Your first couple of sentences make it sound like you just need to go a couple extra days. Your last couple of sentences makes it sound like honor students might not graduate?
