[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They don't want the teachers wasting their time customizing work for your kid while she tours Europe. And they don't want to figure out if she is actually touring Europe, dead in her bedroom (Banita Jacks' kids), or given to a murderer (Relisha Rudd). It's easier for them to just make the rule, call CFSA on the people who break it, and get back to educating the kids who did show up. You send your kid to school in a district where about 80% of the students are at-risk. It's not going to be designed to meet your vacation-schedule desires.[/quote] Again, it was an unavoidable work trip, not a vacation and not something we had any choice about. We had no one else who could watch them (grandparents are all still working or overseas and don't know our children well at all so couldn't manage the two year old). I did feel badly that the teacher had to take time to set aside work for her. [/quote]
