[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Its ridiculous that kids are being pressured to "make up" attendance hours. How absurd. Excused absence means just that: excused. [/quote] So, if a child is sick for a week and misses school, this is "excused." Fine. But, don't you think that this--which sounds like supervised study--would be helpful? And, FWIW, I cannot recall the number of days, but there is a limit to how many can be excused without some type of reaction from the school.[/quote] Study can be done at home. If it’s making up exams, or immediate instruction, it makes sense for it to be after school, with an instructor. Also, being sick is not the only excused absence.[/quote]
