Do they understand how high schools work in the US? Is that 2. Ask your guidance counselor. Not all states have this option. Your age will also matter, ie. In most public school districts, you can stay in high school until the end of the year in which you turn 21 if you have not yet met their graduation requirements.
Many students who arrive from outside the US graduate later than their US-born classmates. It really is no big deal. What you need to do is sit down with your guidance counselor and go through your academic records very carefully. Usually guidance counselors do their best to make the most generous interpretation possible for international transcripts, if both you and your counselor believe that a less generous interpretation would result in a better long-range result for you, perhaps your transcript can be re-evaluated in a way that gives you the time you need.
Spread them out for maximum results. The goal should be to go where you need to go, even if it takes a bit longer.
The costs are for an additional year of schooling. Annual costs of schooling vary widely according to school size, location and demographic composition. Negative effects are rare for educational interventions, so the extent to which students who repeat a year make less progress is striking. Negative effects are disproportionately greater for disadvantaged students, for students from ethnic minorities, and for students who are relatively young in their year group.
Have you considered alternative interventions such as intensive tuition or one to one support? They are considerably cheaper and may make repeating a school year unnecessary see One to one tuition. Negative effects tend to increase with time and repeating more than one year significantly increases the risk of students dropping out of school.

As noted above a gap year could work as well if there is nothing left to take in your HS. Op: does your high school have dual enrollment agreements with a local college?

Some plow forward without looking back while others take time to reflect and start over. It's like you're working on a painting and you're hours into it but you have a bad feeling that its' not going to be a masterpiece or representative of your best work. Do you a. Start over because during this process you made some mistakes and recognize what you need to do to fix these mistakes and want to paint a better painting.
I'm not writing this response strictly for you but for the wider audience of HS students that might have had a slip-up or made a complete debacle of their 9th, 10th, 11th, or senior year. How you survived COVID doesn't define you and each and every one of us had a different experience. For some, we watched 1 or more parents lose work or a source of income, for others we watched a family member get ill or die.
Or perhaps we got COVID and not only missed a lot of schools but are still living with the long-term effects of the virus, whether that is sustained mental illness or physical symptoms. For me, I had suffered all 4 things at the same time. I miss my grandfather and only could say goodbye on the phone before he died. My point is that whether you are 15 or 17, you have a good years of living ahead of you. It doesn't matter in the big picture if it takes you 5 years to finish HS or 5 years to finish college.
It's not a race unless you make it a race. Time is on your side to make it right and live the kind of life you want to live and create the experiences you want to create for yourself. If it's important for you, not your friends, family, or other influencers, to get into the best college you can, then do this for yourself and the rest of the world doesn't matter.
My personal story doesn't matter. I don't have to do this. And I'm taking my own medicine. I don't really care if takes me an extra year to finish college. I will be better for the experience. I would talk to your counselor about this topic since this is very important.
I would suggest that you and your parents meet up with your counselor to discuss the pros and cons of retaking your Junior year.
