[quote=Anonymous]The best way to be able to miss days is to 1. Have your child be the best performer in his class. So no one worries about the impact on the child for missing days. 2. Get along and have a great relationship with the school (teachers, principal, etc). 3. Claim days as religious holidays. Apparently that's excused. 4. Claim there was a death in the family. That's excused. "For a total of up to four (4) cumulative days in each term, a parent’s/guardian’s written excuse is sufficient for explaining the absence. The absence will be excused if it falls under one of the excused absence reasons noted above; For five (5) or more cumulative days per term, further documentation is required to excuse the absence. Written explanation of the student’s absence must be submitted by a doctor or staff of a relevant agency, on official office/agency letterhead and signed by a relevant official." [/quote]
