[quote=Anonymous]My daughter is an only child and she is pretty independent. Middle School and High School have mostly been hands off for me.  She is a Senior now, is taking a challenging course load, has straight As, and has been accepted to her dream university. Here is the thing, she skips school A LOT.  Sometimes she asks me to write her a note, which I do, sometimes she just skips certain periods (she tells me they are going over test corrections which she doesn't need or there is a substitute, or they are watching a movie, etc), and then there are the Senior skip days.  It is not just her, it is most of her friends also (all really good students).  My question is: Can FCPS penalize her in some way for all the missed days/classes? Or will she not be on their radar because of her grades?  Also, how is it possible for kids to skip so much and still get good grades??? Are senior classes graded easier?  I feel like she had to work so hard her junior year to keep top marks and she rarely skipped.  This year is insane. [/quote]
