A Boise, Idaho teenager who recently finished a year of chemotherapy for a cancerous brain tumor won't be allowed to walk at her high school graduation because she's missing four credits. Haylee Winters, hopes to finish the work over the summer and just wants to walk with her friends at the milestone occasion, but the school district won't budge on its policy that students lacking the necessary credits can't walk at the event and won't make an exception for fear of setting a new precedent. Haylee's mom
told KTVB-TV that her daughter is "extremely saddened and disappointed" saying, "This will change her life if she's not able to walk with her class."
