[quote=Anonymous]It's just part of a general DCPS push to address absences. I got it too, telling me my kid had missed 5 days and also informing me that the average number of days missed by students at our school is 4 (with a handy chart so I know that 5 is more than 4). We got this last year, too, when we had a lot more than 5 days missed at this point because my kindergartener got hit with RSV and Covid back to back in fall 2022. In any case, if the absences are excused, you can ignore unless there really is an issue for which you need support in order to get your kid to school. You can check Aspen to see if they are excused, and if there are any listed as unexcused, reach out to the registrar at your school to get it addressed (when this has happened to me, I usually just forward my email from the day of the absence letting them know my kid was sick and let them know it's still showing up as unexcused -- it generally gets addressed same day).[/quote]
