[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Never saw a teacher contract that said teachers had to provide work for students who vacation at the whim of their families.

It’s a courtesy for which you should be grateful.

When you ask for work on something that wasn’t taught yet, the teacher has to scaffold it to be doable for the kid.

Can’t tell you how many times I’ve watched teachers scurry to put together a packet that is never touched. [/quote]

Teachers have to provide work for excused absences. Whether that absence is excused is at the discretion of the parent.[/quote]

Nope. You are not correct there.
But you can dream it.

In fact, parents who take their kids to visit in other countries over a period of months not only cannot expect to take a prepared curriculum with them, they can be disenrolled after an extended absence. The parent does not have the authority to excuse the student. They do have the right to home school, but that will not be supported by the school they are not attending.

Don’t worry, soon the robots can travel with you. No need for teachers or parents.[/quote]
