    I pulled my kid, primarily because the local school district is awful, and because they harass kids (and their parents) into coming to school sick, leading to constant outbreaks of illness, especially since COVID. As an unexpected bonus, it was refreshing to see my kid actually enjoy learning for once.

      I don’t know about everywhere, but where I’m at state funding for schools is based on the lowest recorded attendance, so it encouraged schools to tell kids to come in sick.

      It’s also why they started scheduling exit exams and shit on senior skip days.
