Open disscussion
We are having special learning days this week 2 to be exact. These 2 days before we leave for the Thanksgiving Holiday. The students are suppose to be with advisory teacher and are to make up any work that may be behind on including retake tests that they may have missed. My deli ma is if the students want even come to school on these days giving them the chance to make up and be back on track. Are we suppose to give them another shot when we come back from the Holiday. I don't think we should considering they had two days before hand to do it and they did not take advantage of the opportunity. We try so hard to help the students succeed but when do they realize they should take the help that we are so desperately to give them.
Hi, Kristie - I find it interesting that your system has such a strategie in place - let's hope that students take advantage of this opportunity.
