[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get that this is an issue, but not the highest priority for the district. I agree with a poster above that if you crack down on this you would just get more dropouts. Honestly, kids who don’t want to be in class are better off not being there. We have enough disruptive students already.[/quote] Would love to see some data. Intuitively I’d think if there are consequences to skipping school fewer students would miss school. For every dropout, x amount of students would stay. Regardless, 25 percent is a tragedy. That’s some horrible parenting[/quote] On the other hand, MCPS's 25 percent is better than the national average, which is 33 percent. So hey, there's that....[/quote]
