[quote=Anonymous] DS's travel sports team most likely will make it to the National Championships this year. He is a Junior in high school. According to MCPS, outside sports are never a legitimate excuse for an absence. Unfortunately, we have learned from other families that everyone just lies and says kid is sick if they have a tournament out of town which requires that they miss school. I really didn't want to lie so I would write excuses such as personal family reasons blah blah. I'm only talking 2 or 3 times a year so it's not like once a month or anything. If his team goes to Nationals they will have to miss 4 days of school. Don't me ask why they scheduled it like that. I want DS to be able to talk to his teachers now and be prepared to take quizzes or tests early and finish any homework due while he is away. But if he tells his teachers then they will know he will be away for unexcused absence. What would you do?[/quote]
