School Leadership 2.0

We need to develop practices that help to anchor students to their schools, not alienate them.

10% seems a little low, I would say 20% absent.

I think parents should have that happen, not the children. Parents determine if students are coming to school, not the students.

The students are in class 90% of the time. I would want to compare the lawmakers' attendance to the attendance of the students in question. An essential question is why are these students missing of classes?

Taking their transportation would be problematic. I do believe we need to do something like close campus for seniors, Saturday school, but sometimes they are kept home by family to stay with their siblings

Agree with not allowing participation in athletics, clubs & activities-which are not a required part of their academic program. I have been part of successful programs that link attendance to after-school participation. I do not agree with suspending the license

Terrible! Work with them! As a principal and teacher, this negativity is terrible. Get to the root of the issue and work with the student and family!!

Unless an underlying medical or family-oriented condition is at hand.

Yes, with one important accommodation for students with specific and serious health needs. Workers are fired for careless absenteeism. Students can see their responsibilities too.

There are many reasons why a child may be chronically absent, including transportation, food insecurity, income-based issues, etc. instituting a broadcasted policies discriminates against these already vulnerable communities.
