[quote=Anonymous]My family is going on a multigenerational trip to celebrate the 100th birthday of a family member. For reasons I won't get into here, it is not during a school break so my DD in 8th grade will miss a week of school in early May. She's a good student who should not have a problem with the missed time, and she has a really experienced math tutor who can help with any new concepts covered in math. Has anyone done anything similar and have any tips on how to best approach it? Will teachers/admin be helpful if we come clean about the trip in advance and try to make arrangements to keep up with the work? I know some people will tell me how horrible I am for pulling my kid out of school for a trip, but we've decided that this is worth it for our family. Still I'm hoping for advice or insights from those who may have done this before.[/quote]
