[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reach out to the school and his counselor. We’re doing something similar with our 10th grader, and I’ve already gotten approval and a plan for working with his teachers to complete assignments and tests. The burden is on my kid to get his work done, but this is a trip he really wants to take with me and the only time we can do it is the last week of the quarter. [b]Obviously a different school, but the admin was very understanding and eager to work with us.[/b] I think it really depends on (1) the reason you’re pulling your kid and (2) how good of a student your kid is. If you have a good reason and a good student, they don’t really care. Just make sure your son is on board and can get his work done. I had a couple of very serious talks with my son before I even agreed to approach the school.[/quote] What nonsense. Is this an FCPS public school? No admin is "very understanding and eager to work with" a kid missing school for fun.[/quote]
