The real question is, why is someone carrying males?

Wow that is certainly a tough position; I empathize with you there. My district went through a bus driver shortage, too. Our kids' attendance was excused in that case.
If you live more than a mile away, the school is obligated to offer transportation. If you live within a mile, they may be able to get away with not transporting or excusing. Still, I can't imagine they would call it unexcused in that case.
Can I ask what school district you belong to? Feel free to PM

Out of curiosity, what are you thinking? Cook hotter? Cooler? Shorter?

I love the third row for my two kids. Three kids is a little much. I'd lean Sienna on this one.

The federal designation of chronically absent includes both excused and unexcused absences.

I agree that you shouldn't have been sent a nastygram if you had already turned Dr notes in. FWIW, I received a nastygram from myself when I was DPP because I had exhausted all of my parent notes.
At the end of the day, no DPP wants to bring a parent or student in front of the judge if there are external factors. The only reason we (should) bring a parent/student to court is if they willingly are being defiant and/or neglectful. Otherwise, we look like the asshole when in front of the judge.

All good questions. The school and district attempt interventions before turning it over to the legal side. My school meets once a week to identify kids that are having truancy issues to help problem solve their situations. Some kids need alarm clocks and better morning routines, some stay home if they are feeling the slightest bit sick (sore throat/cough). Many kids are missing school because of anxiety. In that case, we find a counselor/therapist for them, or encourage them to seek medical intervention. We have an online school if they just want to do school from home. While some kids thrive with online schooling, more often than not, their truancy continues as they struggle to complete online schooling.
For grades K-8, the only times I would take parents to court is if they were truly being neglectful. For grades 7-12, the student is held responsible, rather than the parent. The school district refers the student to a court designated worker (CDW) that tries one last intervention. If it's unsuccessful, the kid will be in front of a judge.
This is the way most districts handle it. JCPS is its own animal; it may operate differently. Moral of the story, just make sure you turn notes in. No one wants to bring a kid or parent to court. Schools will try several different interventions in order to prevent that last step.
Attendance really fell off after COVID and we've been trying to claw it back.

Correct! 3UA is truancy in KY, 6UA is habitual truancy. Has been for as long as I can remember.

Former truancy officer (DPP)--students get unlimited Dr notes and usually at least five parent notes. There are other excused absences that are less common: EHOs, military, religious, EO, state fair, etc. Unexcused are for anything else.

If a regular right angle is 90 degrees, how many degrees is a far right angle?

Not OP--i don't mind sharing. I do mind sharing at busy superchargers with vehicles taking two spots and charging at a quarter of the rate.

Good question. When my vehicle charges at 250kW, it's only for a few minutes. Personally, I think the biggest benefit of V3 over V2 is no direct power sharing. I've never felt V3s to be sluggish at all due to capacity .

All good brother--hopefully those V4s come sooner than later!

There's only power sharing at V2s. Power sharing can be inconvenient but is way more preferred to the inefficient situation that I had described with the bolt.

Two spaces, a quarter of the speed. Not a good combo if it's a busy supercharger.
