My friend is a junior at a charter school in Florida that requires that you maintain a 2.5 GPA per year in order to remain there, and due to deaths in the family and extensive family problems, she became severely depressed and missed over 50 days of school. Her GPA plummeted to below the 2.5 mark, and the school is not excusing the absences because she does not have a note from a doctor. The only reason she hasn't seen a psychiatrist or therapist is that her family does not have health insurance.

Would she be eligible to make up the work with homebound school and then resume school in the fall?

I'm actually a friend from out-of-state, so I really don't know much about how homebound / homeschooling works there. She just asked that I help, and that's what I'm trying to do.

Thank you.
