[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] << bunch of stuff snipped >> While the child was absent due to non-medical reasons, we don't know what those reasons are. Many are assuming a vacation, and while that may be the case, it could also have been a valid reason. [b]I pulled my son out of ES for 2 days to travel out of town to attend my mother's (his grandmother's) funeral, and I was told that it was an unexcused absense. [/b] So, it was an "unexcused absense" - I could care less. Somethings are more important than a day of school.[/quote] http://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/parents/basics/schoolbasics/#4 PP, of course you were 100% right to pull the child for his grandmother's funeral. The above link says "death in immediate family" is excused absence. In my book, the grandmother qualifies as immediate family. [/quote] Your book does not mean squat. "Immediate family" means those living under the same roof. [/quote]
