+1,359 Suspending students from school for ditching is really stupid. It's like, "Hey, you didn't want to go to school, so now we're MAKING you not go to school! How about THAT?" amirite?

A good punishment for that would be to make them go to summer school.

Then they'd just ditch that, too. Unless they cared about their grades, in which case, why were they skipping in the first place? :P

Better than having them distract classes, take up space, and possible destroy property.

My dad is an ISS teacher. He hates it.

We have ISS too. They blacked the windows of the room where ISS takes place. It's so freaking scary.

Last year, my school tried to put a policy where if you missed five days you had saturday school. Including if you called in sick. It didn't work.

Why can't more schools be like yours? God forbid there actually be some civility in school attendance policies.

My friend got suspended for ditching, and our school suspended her, but she had to go to class, do the assignments, take the tests, etc and she didnt get any credit for it. and she was suspended until she completed 2 weeks of it. so if she ditched again, start over. if she didnt turn smthng in, start over.
