[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Like anything, depending on what the reason is and if it's something that is unavoidable of course it will be fine, the kids and teachers will figure it out. But especially if we're talking elementary, if you have a choice of a week I actually think this is a very difficult one. The first week is when norms and routines are set by the teacher. The class is learning the expectations for the classroom, this teacher etc. But I guess it depends on the grade. In high school as long as it's not freshman year probably wouldn't be as big of a deal, but I'm not there yet. [/quote] Completely agree with this as an ES educator. The first week is difficult to miss because of the community building and routines that are established. Your child will miss out on a lot. If it's unavoidable that's one thing, if you are missing for vacation, I wouldn't.[/quote]
