[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Its okay, it is one day, the schools are going to be 1/2 empty.[/quote]

Tell that to my 5th grader who has perfect attendance. We take school seriously in our house. We did what the county asked and left the week open for snow day make-ups. But I guess the families that blew it off, signed up for camps and vacations and then complained got what they wanted. Less school to have to deal with. It is really sad that more people are excited school is ending early than upset that the plan in place was pulled out and changed because...??[/quote]

This is a great learning opportunity for your 5th grader. Life doesn't always work out the way you want it to. It isn't fair, but sometimes that's the way the ball bounces. Missing a day of school certainly won't kill her.

[b]I guess you never strived for perfect attendance as a kid?[/b] It is a big deal. I did it twice in 13yrs and it was an awesome feeling. We also had parties and certificates and shook hands with the principal but my guess is that they don't that anymore.

And really, it is the BOE fault for backing out of a plan that was a written policy. One they expected the parents to abide by. [/quote]

Not the PP, but no, I didn't. When I was too sick to go to school, I stayed home.

And I don't agree with the idea that you should stick with a plan that is not a good plan, just because it's the plan. [/quote]
