ACE awareness for HS Counselors

[Vle045]

You aren’t kidding about being stuck. There are many instances where they say.. this is how we’ve always done it. Or… this is what is in the handbook. OK, so tell me how it helps to suspend a kid or give saturday school to a kid because they were a minute or two late a few times? Literally just a minute or two… during bad weather. Ya know what that inspires? Absenteeism. Truly. One morning was just too hectic. There was no way we would make it in time for school. We would have been five minutes late. So I called him in sick and was done with it. Better than a 3 day suspension. That is one of the most asinine policies. Preparing for work life? Nah.
