[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter is an only child and she is pretty independent. Middle School and High School have mostly been hands off for me.  She is a Senior now, is taking a challenging course load, has straight As, and has been accepted to her dream university. Here is the thing, she skips school A LOT.  Sometimes she asks me to write her a note, which I do, sometimes she just skips certain periods (she tells me they are going over test corrections which she doesn't need or there is a substitute, or they are watching a movie, etc), and then there are the Senior skip days.  It is not just her, it is most of her friends also (all really good students).  My question is: Can FCPS penalize her in some way for all the missed days/classes? Or will she not be on their radar because of her grades?  [b]Also, how is it possible for kids to skip so much and still get good grades???[/b] Are senior classes graded easier?  I feel like she had to work so hard her junior year to keep top marks and she rarely skipped.  This year is insane. [/quote]

Because much of the work is posted on Schoology. Teachers hare required to make the curriculum accessible to all students -- so whether you are sick, or on a field trip, or having a bout of senioritis -- it is generally all there for you to complete.[/quote]
