I work at a DCPS elementary school and I have an 10th grader at JR. I'm not making him go if he doesn't want to.

Yup, very few kids will be there.

The last 3-5 days of any public school are a joke…but usually fun.

No reason to make him go but remember to fill out the absence form each day.

Mine has missed 26 days this year. We just got a letter that he should graduate. His GPA is 4.15 I think. He said 'no child left behind' as I told him that enough is enough. Told him that they should leave him behind as en example.
