[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD had a make-up test today because she missed a day last week for a school event. Except the instructor can't stay after school now, so it's two tests tomorrow. Even if I said she could skip school (which I would not), she wouldn't, because she has two different problem  sets (~30 problems) due when she returns on Tuesday, a writing summative on Wednesday, a SAQ on Thursday and a quiz on Friday. Essentially, the only class she will have no work for is the one where she has two tests tomorrow.

She's planning to handle it by working/studying tomorrow after school, and on Wednesday, before our guests arrive. She is also contributing 3 dishes to Thanksgiving, so I'm not sure where the time is coming from.[/quote]

And this is exactly the problem. Now your child is stuck with a bunch of work over the break. What if you all were traveling? It would make it that much harder. Teachers need to be instructed to not have any work due the first 3 days back from break. It’s utterly ridiculous. There should be no summatives allowed within the first 3 days.[/quote]
