[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless the school is threatening to not let your child move up to the next grade, I don’t see the point of this. I recall growing up that students couldn’t miss more than 10% of school days, so if there are 180 school days, a student could miss 18 before dealing with administrative hassles (without getting into excused/unexcused, half-days for doctor appointments, tardies). It seems like most kids, barring unexpected medical issues, wouldn’t approach 18 absences in the normal course of a school year—a few sick days, a couple of vacation days, etc.[/quote] It would "seem" that way, but I think it is a larger number of kids than you believe.[/quote]
