Yes, attendance will be taken (the days have already been added to the Synergy calendar).
No, it doesn’t matter. Grades are done on Friday. We are instructed to do community building activities.

They’re not even full days.
Some of us (like teachers) have had to work in person all along.


And your work is deeply appreciated. You also get summers off, so at least a brief respite from the grind. But I hope as a teacher you're not going to be bad-mouthing parents who send their kids. That's all.


Nope! Would never, they will have fun playing games and packing my room with me. I've never heard of a teacher getting mad at kids for being where they belong. I happen to believe that schools functioning as childcare isn't a bad thing, it's not the only function, but an important one so parents can work and kids have a safe place to be, socialize and learn.

Yeah my kid is going Monday because they're an orientation leader (welcoming 8th graders to HS) but the school just said "no school Monday for orientation, don't come Tuesday unless you have business to take care of with a teacher that you discussed ahead of time."

+1 Teachers at Poolesville told kids not to come. I can totally understand sending a kid to avoid paying for a babysitter or because they need the school lunch or because they’ve got their heart set on having perfect attendance, but otherwise, why would anyone in any grade go?

Attendance still needs to be taken. Even though most probably won’t be there, especially for high school.

No one is going to school those days. My DD will be at summer camp.
