Nashville, TN asked in Juvenile Law for Tennessee

Q: juvenile state probation / transfer to online school

My 17 year daughter is on state probation. We live in Williamson County. I want to withdraw her from her current school and enroll her in an accredited online school to graduate. Is there any reason being on probation would prevent this?

A: Talk to the probation officer. It may or may not be something they would agree is appropriate. Don't risk it, but shouldn't be a problem unless the child is truant or failing.
