[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have family overseas and missed more than the threshold number of days last year. We had to have a meeting with the school social worker. We may have also gotten a letter or two, and it's possible that the language was "condescending". Honestly? I'm fine with all of this. I can live with a visit to the school social worker and a few letters. All of this infrastructure is to protect students in very vulnerable situations and if it means we never never have another case like Relisha Rudd, I'm fine with it. Protecting those vulnerable kids is worth an hour or two of inconvenience on my part. [/quote] This! My MS child was mistakenly marked absent and I had to have a meeting with the school. I am all for this! I expect them to tell me if my kid skips class and they should expect me to come in if I am not upholding attendance on my end. Responsibility and accountability for all. Poor Relisha Rudd.[/quote]
