Most schools have policies regarding this. Your best bet would be to speak with the principal and/or school board and find out what their policy is. There are also many different kinds of alternative schools as well! Good luck!

No, the high school is under no obligation to let him enroll. Back when I was of high school age, like in the Jurassic era, they had, I think they were called, continuation schools, in which people who had dropped out or had had problems could study to get their GED, which is the same as graduation from high school. If your son wishes to continue his education by going to college or whatever, a GED is as good as.
