My school has a policy in place stating that any student that misses 10 or more classes per semester can be dropped from that specific class that the student has 10 or more absences and if the teacher deems it necessary. So, okay, that really isn't a problem I guess, even though some people do get sick a lot and will end up missing more than 10 days of school a semseter... Here's where it gets interesting. This week the Freshmen and Sophomores are taking the CSAP (Colorado Student Assessment Program) where the Juniors and Seniors only have to be present for 2 classes each day for the whole week. For certain students like me who have most or all of their credits, or have a lot of partial absences, having to go to school for 2 hours to do absolutely nothing is pretty pointless. Never-the-less, here's what happened. I had my mother call me out of school for the rest of the week since I confirmed from all my teachers that I wouldn't be doing anything, and yet a problem arose. According to our assistant principle, our school now has a "new" policy that states a student cannot have more than 5 absences per class. My problem is that the administration of our school never notified ANYONE about this new policy, and I am skeptical that it even exists. I don't have a problem with going to school, what I have a problem with is when our school makes a "new" policy and does not notify the students when it is the STUDENTS THAT IT EFFECTS.

So, do you think they are in the right or wrong with this? Is it illegal for them to do this sort of thing?
