[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fleet family, are you saying that when your school called you to confirm your choice, you had an option to switch choices? We were told by our school there is no switching allowed.[/quote]

We were told by the principal at our n Arlington school that there would be a final opportunity to switch after teacher assignments and before the switch for students.[/quote]

Wow. Lucky. ATS family here. We were told this week no switching. I sure wish there was more consistency across schools. [/quote]

I don't know if my ES will let us switch but if they go back hybrid while numbers look like this I just won't send my kid into the building. They can't make you send your kid in. And the unexcused absence policy allows for a pretty high number of absences. But I suspect the school will allow a switch to DL before that happens.

Students  learn  best  when  they  attend  school  regularly.    Arlington  Public  Schools  requires  all students  to  attend  all  classes  unless  excused  in  writing  by  a  parent/guardian  or  school  official. Schools  shall  monitor  and  record  the  absences  of  all  students. Excessive  student  absences (elementary school student –more than five days consecutively or 20 days cumulative; secondary students –10 days) will be addressed through parent conferences, home visits, attendance contracts and  contact  logs.  The  school  division  shall  ensure  that  students  who  are  at  risk  for  dropping  out shall participate in counseling and other dropout prevention initiatives.
