[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We constantly get the emails from my kids middle school saying she had an unexcued absence.  I used to call about them but the school never could tell me the reason why and when I asked my kid (who is a pretty good student, and I don’t think ditching class) she either didn’t know or thought it was because the sub didn’t mark correctly; she was late to class because she needed to go to the bathroom; or she had left class (with a note) to do a checkin with counselor or something like that.  I have given up trying to track it because the front office was so unhelpful and it didn’t seem like a big deal.  It would be moderately more helpful if the automated message reported which period(s) the child was marked absent—then a parent could tell whether the kid or ditching class regularly, or whether there’s just a teacher or sub  that doesn’t take attendance well.  I can’t email all seven teachers every time I get the auto email.[/quote]

Same here, I have probably 15-20 of these. I used to call and it was usually a mistake then I decided that it wasn't my job to manage attendance. They have all the modern conveniences available to them and they still can't get it? DD is doing well and getting all As it is a non issue for me. [/quote]
