[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not in MoCo but I am suspicious of absenteeism counts since our local school counts a kid who is late (even 5 minutes) as absent. I know because I get a call when my kid is late- for doctors appointments or just a late morning. There was also a LOT of illness in my kids class. One kid we know got COVID, flu x2, strep, then a secondary infection that resolved and then rebounded. All in 4 months or so? My own son was out for COVID for 6 days and that was before 80 days of school and he had been sick 2-3 days total earlier in the year. [/quote] + 1. First grade has been brutal. Kid missed close to 3 weeks of school total and all for illness. Covid, random lingering fevers - all after the Covid by the way, Covid was in the first month of the school year. We didn’t keep her out for ordinary colds. It was all legit illness. Older kid didn’t get most of these bugs and missed only a couple days all year. [/quote]
