This also works at my daughter's school. No questions asked.

Or write "Medical Issue". They don't need to know it isn't the child's medical issue. "Please excuse XX from school on XX date for a medical issue"

I'm sure there are some parents who have abused this to go on trips, but this has gotten ridiculous. So now we're giving zero grades for unlawful absences?

I'm taking a day off to go to out of town [guardian]to support my father. My mom recently passed (2 months ago)and me and my sister are alternating every other month to keep my father company and support him.



I hate that my son will have to swallow a zero on a test day (Friday) to support my father's emotional health.

By the way, the upcoming months, I'm scheduling around and school holidays.
