As my title says I was in my junior year(11th garde) of high school and I failed by a month and a half because I moved from Dandridge,TN back to Tampa,FL and couldn't enroll into a near by high school to finish. I've been looking for a job and a reputable online high school or places that do ged testing to finish. So needless to say my high school transcripts won't be transferred from my old school until I get enrolled into a school down here or take my ged.

There's really no way to answer your question. It's up to whatever you school you end up going to.

I find it very hard to believe that you couldn't enroll in a nearby high school to finish. Public schools are required to enroll you. Did your parents not have proper documentation to enroll you or? I need more details.

Yes, the story is not believable, if you move and in the US, you actually have to go, normally to the nearest school, You get your records sent from other school and go.

But if you failed 11th grade, then normally you will have to retake at least part, if you do semesters and have different classes, often you may have credit for first 1/2 and may only have to do 1/2 of that year, it is not the years, but it is the total number of credit hours or units that you have toward graduation.
