I seriously don’t understand this, and we won’t even get into the claim that you have to pay a copay to get a note. Arresting a woman because her son – WHO IS ON THE HONOR ROLE – missed too many days of school?
A Georgia mother was arrested after her son was accused of having too many unexcused absences at school.
Julie Giles of Sylvania was shocked when she received a certified letter the day before Mother’s Day informing her there was a warrant for her arrest after the Screven County school district said her 10-year-old son Sam had 12 unexcused absences, six more than is allowed by the school.
Even more shocking is that Giles occasionally works at the school as a substitute teacher.
The woman is even a substitute at the school, and it’s not like the absences got in the way of the students learning if he is ON THE HONOR ROLL. Seriously, what the deuce?
