[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If they want kids to attend, then they need to add a consequence for being absent! Kids can be absent as often as they want and still earn high grades (or passing grades if that’s what the child is trying for). There’s no motivation to attend.[/quote] Many chronically absent children have no choice in the matter. Parents do not send them and they are too young to just walk out the door. Or their parents keep them home intentionally to care for sick younger siblings. I’m not going to give adult consequences to an 11 year old child. [/quote] The question is why these kids are missing school. If their younger siblings are sick, they might be sick too. Sick kids should not be at school. Mine will not go to school sick.[/quote]
