If you are talking about when they shut down the computer, then,
depending on what the script does, you may be able to move it to
/sbin/halt.local, or you can create a script for /etc/rc.d/init.d
that will be run on shutdown before the halt script. One thing to be
aware of is that when /sbin/halt.local is run, everything except the
root file system and the ramdisk is unmounted.

If you are talking about when a user logs out, then that is a
different matter, and depends on the shell or desktop used, and if
it is a CLI or GUI login.
