Why is this ridiculous? This sounds perfectly normal.

It's the students who should follow up in middle and high school. You were absent--you follow up.

I’m not an FCPS teacher, I work in a different district, but couldn’t a follow up be an announcement the next class? Anyone absent last class should check Schoology for notes and assignments that were missed. That’s what I would do and as an FCPS parent I agree, my high school and middle school aged kids should be the ones following up.

This is something that many of us (maybe functionally of us) already specify in the syllabus that parents and students are supposed to read and sign at the beginning of the year.

So you have to give additional follow-up for kids absent during FCPS religious holidays only?
