[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone know how hard this is to do?  Our son would miss the last 8 days of school before winter recess and he's taking Geo H and Spanish 2, along with the other core classes.  Will Longfellow administration give us issues with this?

You’ll probably get a letter regarding more than normal absences, but there’s not much they can do. Your student could have quite a bit to make up on their return, you shouldn’t expect teachers to prepare work in advance.[/quote]

Can they provide the work being missed/due though?  I don't want him to lose grades for missed work, so he'll need to submit anything due while he's away.  I'm hoping the teachers allow that to be completed.

Anyone know who the geometry teachers are at Longfellow?[/quote]

No. He can do it when he comes back but I as a teacher am never going to take the time to pull together a bunch of work for you ahead of time bc of your choice to miss 2 weeks of school. [/quote]
