[quote=Anonymous]NP - school accreditation can be affected by higher numbers of student absenteeism (10% or more missed days for ANY reason). My straight A honor roll sophmore was out with pneumonia for three days in October. I got a Talking Points message that she would be required to stay after school to make up time missed. She was PULLED five minutes before the bell from her last class and marched to the library for her make up hour. It was like a forced detention/study hall. And she was excused and is an honor roll student. But I also understand the serious pressure coming from VDOE on absentism and it's defintely showing up in the schools and how they choose to handle it.[/quote]
