[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - thanks for all these great ideas, especially the homeschool course and summer program ideas. DD is smart and motivated so I think those options could potentially work. [/quote] OP, it sounds like you got the advice you needed. You and your DD are wise to recognize that students in classes with frequently absent teachers often don't get the instruction they deserve. It's an ugly secret of public education, documented in studies showing lower performance for students of teachers with poor attendance. I wish I had understood this when my kids were younger and had teachers who were experiencing issues that prevented them from being in the classroom regularly. I'm not judging the absences, but those years set my kids back and I should have done more to fill in the blanks. [/quote]
