[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems crazy to me that a district that is allegedly so focused on student attendance would allow, or at least turn a blind eye to, all their 5th graders missing the last three days of school. Do fifth grade parents just budget in those 3 days as part of their 4 unexcused absences before the school gets serious and demands an attendance meeting? (High school seniors I understand, and that seems pretty standard everywhere). Also, I know that last week of school is basically useless, particularly when it's just a standalone Monday, but a formal clap-out and admission that no 5th graders are expected to be at school for three days is wild. [/quote] This is how it always is and, honestly, my experience is that DCPS elementary and middle schools totally phone it in after CAPE testing. So, the last month of school is mostly a waste. Yes and this is with all the lip service about attendance. [/quote]
