[quote=Anonymous]DC (in HS) (who rarely takes days off) is really stressed out now and I am wondering if students in MCPS can take a day off for mental health? I am looking at JEA-RA, and section III.A.3.b seems to imply that students can: "MCPS recognizes that students require physical, emotional, and psychological well-being in order to participate effectively in instruction. Schools will excuse student absences due to illness or absences needed for the student to engage in activities that support their physical or psychological well-being." But I am not sure since section 1 right below (III.A.3.b.1) says: "Well-being activities that constitute lawful absences under this regulation are defined as programs or techniques that support positive physical and/or mental health so that a student may return to and access instruction." So, where are these "programs or techniques that support positive physical and/or mental health" defined?[/quote]
