[quote=Anonymous]OP here - thank you so much to the last two posters, I appreciate it. We are (maybe obviously) coming from public school where this would not occur because it wouldn’t be allowable. And also the teachers would be flexible. So it just would have been helpful for us to get an overall heads up about this. Something that maybe seems super obvious to those who have been in private is not necessarily so obvious to newcomers. We also chose a Catholic school because we do want him to be better prepared for college and all of those things. I absolutely believe in personal and academic responsibility. He absolutely made an error in judgement, and I understand this is part of the learning process. I also don’t think public school is right where some kids (mine included) are pretty consistently turning their work in on time and others aren’t at all and there is no differentiation. Just wish there was something between the super rigid and no rigidity at all, because that feels more like the real world to me. [/quote]
