Dolly Parton attended local schools in Sevierville and Sevier County, Tennessee, when she was growing up. Her high school was aptly named, the Sevier County High School and she graduated from it, aged 18, in 1964. The day after her graduation, she left for Nashville to pursue her dream of becoming a country singing star. She has also received an honorary doctorate in humane and musical letters from the University of Tennessee, so now, officially, can be called Doctor Dolly. However, Dolly insists she always hated school, and feels sorry for kids even to this day when she sees them on the bus. She, though smart, says she did not do well at school because she and her siblings never had time to do their homework, they were too busy helping their parents tend the crops.

Is there a way to gradute if you have 10.5 credits in missing and you are a junior in high school there's no night school to gradute that does not inclued the Internet?

I was in the situation where I moved from state to state. When I moved, the school system required that students have credits in different subjects than I had. I had 18 credit hours, enough to graduate in TN and WV, but the wrong classes in WV. What they wanted me to do in my junior year was to go a half day, pick up the prerequisite courses during the summer and then finnish up during my senior year. I chose to quit, take my GED and that's what I did. I didn't feel that it was fair for a school system to penalize me because my parents moved. Hope that helps!
