DS, 8th grade
75days and climbing. He found his brother in December after a violent suicide attempt and is in intensive therapy + modified schedule for that. DS also has a neurological condition that’s contributed about 20 days of the total.

3rd grader, no absences. But he’s got his eye on he perfect attendance award now, so I’m convinced he’ll come down with something now.

0 so far for our 2nd grader; this is typical. However, will miss a day next month for a relative's graduation. I feel bad breaking her streak, lol.

DS maybe 3 or 4 for illnesses. DD1 has missed probably 7 or 8. DD2 is on 8 days today and tomorrow will be 9. DS2 has missed maybe two days of preschool all year. This has all been from being sick.

I am so sorry, PP. I have a child who has missed all but a few days due to a suicide attempt. The collateral damage to the family is really tough.

Good luck to you and your family. I hope that you are able to find a way to heal your family and your kids are able to regain their footing and live long and happy lives. Sorry you are dealing with this.

DS1 - 0 days
DS2 - 1 day

They are about to miss 2 days for a family trip. It's just the luck of the draw. One year they missed almost 15 days, with half or so due to illness.

2 children, each 8-10 days total due to an assortment of illnesses.

DD in PK3 has missed 5.5 days: 2 for family funeral; 3 for illness (1 day for 1 and 2 days for another); and got sent home early once because of a rash "requiring dr's sign off" (just an aggravation of eczema, which we and they know she has; annoying/overreaction but not worth fighting them on).

Finishing 2nd grade - has never missed a day in 3 years.

Other kid in last year of preschool - misses a day or two a year.

I think 7 or 8 days - stomach things and flu.
