[quote=Anonymous] Yeah. I don't care anymore. Attendance taking is crap: my kids have been marked absent when they where in school, and not marked absent when I had pulled them out for doctor's appointments. Usually it's whenever there's a sub, they cannot seem to take attendance correctly. I'm perfectly ready to believe that some kids are never in school. But that's not a problem schools should be expected to resolve. Deeper societal problems like poverty, single parent households, violence, spill over into schools, not the reverse. You cannot ask school administrators for things they cannot give: they can't be therapists, security officers, and social workers in addition to being teachers! MCPS has plenty things wrong with it, but I don't fault it for some students' chronic absenteeism. [/quote]
