I have a couple of questions about preventing orphans for specific
document blocks.
These all relate to a web-based report card application I have written
for a study abroad school client of mine. The ConTeXt file is being
generated and processed out of a PHP Laravel framework app.
I have stripped away most of the details as well as the application
fonts, but the issue that I am facing is related to keeping the course
header (done as a paragraph environment), \hairline, and the teacher's
comment for that course together as a unit.
At a minimum, I would like the three elements as a grouped and pushed to
the following page. Ideally, and this is more for my own learning, I'd
like to be able to have finer control---say the header, \hairline, and a
set number of comment lines would be acceptable at the bottom of a page.
What would be the best practices for this?

I tried to use Aditya's suggestion (which was for Natural Tables) to
keep paragraphs on the same page:
\noindent{\blank[samepage]}
but I don't seem to have much success with the MWE I posted earlier.
Try as a might, I cannot seem to keep the paragraph head "{\ss\tfc
English (Grade 12)}" and the hairline together. I can, however, keep
the hairline and the following lorem text together, but I need all three
elements to float as a group: the paragraph header, hairline, and
paragraph body.
Would anyone have any suggestions on how to accomplish this?
Many thanks.

You can put everything in a framedtext to keep it together.
\setupbodyfont[9pt]
\setupindenting[yes,medium,next]
\setupwhitespace[small]
\definetabulate[subjectpar][|f{\ssc}w(.3\textwidth)|f{\ssc}p|]
\setuptabulate
[subjectpar][after={\blackrule[width=\textwidth,height=\linewidth]\noindentation}]
\defineframedtext
[subjectblock]
[frame=off,
width=max,
offset=0pt,
before={\blank[2*big]}]
\starttext
\blank[8*big, force]
\dorecurse{10}
{\startsubjectblock
\startsubjectpar
\NC ENG4U \NC English (Grade 12) \NC\NR
\stopsubjectpar

Or, just put everything in a TABLE (that does not split, by default):
\setupbodyfont[9pt]
\setupindenting[yes,medium,next]
\setupwhitespace[small]
\startsetups subjects
\setupTABLE[frame=off, align={normal,hyphenated}]
\setupTABLE[column][1][width=0.3\textwidth]
\setupTABLE[column][2][width=0.7\textwidth]
\setupTABLE[row][1][style=\ssc, bottomframe=on, toffset={2\bigskipamount}]
\stopsetups
\starttext
\blank[8*big, force]
\dorecurse{10}
{\startTABLE[setups=subjects]}]
\NC ENG4U \NC English (Grade 12) \NC\NR
\NC[nc=2] \input{lorem.tex} \NC\NR
\stopTABLE}
\stoptext
