I live in PA where school doesn't legally begin until age 8, and with that kindergarden is not mandatory. We are in the process of relocation and when I talked to the school about taking the next couple Fridays off they told me if she went over 10 days they would have to send the warning letter and future absences could result in a court appearance, She had 6 days for a edicational trip, 2 for sick and 1 for the relocation. Only 1 was considered unexcused and you are allowed up to 20 before being held according to the handbook and that is a general quide for the grades. This is kindergarden and there is no holding back because I dont have to enroll her until she is 8 and they let you test for level up to 3rd grade. I am considering just pulling her out at the end of the month and she will only miss the final 20 school days of the year. Does anyone know if I have to enroll her into the new school, also located in PA?
