[quote=Anonymous]Do you know the costs to a school of not making AYP? I do not havea child at DC Prep, but they are taking attendance seriously. The school understands how a child in the classroom everyday supports learning and they are establishing clear expectations with families. I know of a family who took 3 weeks off in January to visit family in South America. Do you think this child returned to the classroom in the same place with respect to academics as his peers? How much additional work did this place on the teachers? (who are already overworked?) How about taking away time from the other children who were in class for the previous 3 weeks as the teachers try to bring him up to speed. I agree that it is unfortunate for 4YOs to be told that they can not go on a field trip b/c they missed school. But I think that many families use PreS and PreK as daycare as opposed to school do not take the schedule or start and end times seriously.[/quote]
