I live in a country where the school don't even care when your absent.
You pay 2k for a school year
you get 500 every month for free only when you not graduate you need to return the 500 you get every month.
and like 3 days school a week.

isn't it amazing?

Well there ya go.
In 'merica. They don't cost anything.

Schools are paid for each day the kid is in school, and they get paid for excused absences, but they dont get paid for the unexcused absences. When my kids were in school it was $8 per day in California. It isnt about what their grades are, its about the money.

It is time to ban public sector unions, they are counter productive and a threat to the well being of society. School is not meant to be an income generator for teachers and administrators.

In the 40 years since the inception of the department of education, the quality of education has diminished substantially. It is a failed experiment that needs to be shut down.

Be prepared to be blamed and attacked for providing facts.
