  2. Grades and diplomas may be held if all financial obligations are not cleared.
  3. The school may also deny 8th grade students of privileges and graduation in cases where financial obligations are not met.
 
The school is grateful to all parents who take their financial obligations seriously and meet them in a timely manner. It is imperative that parents who are unable to fulfill these obligations for any reason contact Ms. Essman (323) 664-2131 immediately to discuss the matter.
