[quote=Anonymous]We recently moved away from the Washington DC area to the Midwest. So far so good, but there is one little detail in DD's high school I want your opinion on. In her English class, the teacher gives them three "work ethic" points per day to go in the grade book that can be earned through participation, etc. and taken away through being on their phones, being disruptive, etc. That's not my issue. My issue is that if they kid is absent, they're automatically docked one point, if it's an unexcused they're docked three. I can understand the unexcused policy, but not the excused. How exactly is it fair for my child, who has some health issues and will miss school to be docked points on the basis of her not being there? Or, am I overreacting?[/quote]
