[quote=Anonymous][quote=NathanBacaABC7][quote=Anonymous]Why didn't they fake attendance? Why aren't kids kicked out of the school when they have so many unexcused absences? I can see plenty of parents walking them right back in the next day.[/quote] DCPS policy states after 10 absences a class, they get a "failure from absence" grade. 30 unexcused absences in a year nets a final failing grade. But those records are not cross-checked with transcipts to see if those policies are being violated. The Chancellor says that changed after the story broke and is in effect this school year.[/quote] CHEC does not follow this policy. Teachers are told by Tukeva that they can only fail a maximum of 5-10% of students [/quote]
