Anyone else notice that the school districts (mainly through direction of admin) are putting up these smoke and mirrors that hide what really goes on? Like 50s for kids that never set foot in a class. And now we are told to mark them “present” even if they show up at the last 2 minutes. It seems to me that they want to try and hide the chronic absenteeism issue rather than fix it. Kind of weird it is also linked to the admin’s evaluation goal as well…
