[quote=Anonymous]I agree about the leadership and metrics with honors, but tge attendance stuff is just not true at my kid's MCPS HS. I just hot a menacing letter say mine would be withdrawn if she missed more classes. It was a mistake in our case because her absences were related to illness and excused. But, they are on it. There are not kids roaming the halls, though I do see some outside, especially at lunch (even though they have closed lunch). Also,  with class attendance,  kids are absent if they miss more than 15/20 min of class. They are not stretching tardies for this metric at this school.  Also there are no parent consultations when 0s are issued.

I agree about the  OP on the 50% rule. It's frustrating.  But, the sweeping accusations about attendance across schools and the jab at restorative justice seem to convey a bias. RJ isn't a cure all by any means but can do some good in the right situation.  And, I do understand that sometimes it just exacerbates a bad situation.

I agree that there are serious issues with current MCPS leadership, but let's advocate for change without the broad strokes.[/quote]
