[quote=Anonymous]Look. You can do whatever you want. Your original question is "how hard is this to do" and "will they give us a hard time?" It's easy to do and you may get a smack on the hand from admin or teachers about missing that much school and they may mark those days as "unexcused" but they're not going to stop you. The wisdom in the situation is what the majority of the posters have been saying. Just because you CAN do something doesn't mean that its a good idea. By the time my kids started taking HS courses, the amount of time it took for them to make up work in one missed class while the continuing work piled up increased exponentially. Even the smartest most diligent kids would find themselves in a hole that may be very difficult to dig out of. Geometry is one of those courses that is particularly hard to dig out of. So yes you can but know that you'll probably cause your kid a significant level of academic distress for the rest of the year.[/quote]
