Federal prosecutors are putting D.C. public schools under the microscope over concerns that chronically absent students are still being allowed to graduate. A special grand jury will dig into truancy, parental supervision and school practices, with teachers and staff expected to testify as chronic absenteeism sits at roughly 40%.... show more

Social promotion is the reason we are in this mess! And parents who allow this are crippling their children.

Kids being passed to enter a forever Government welfare trap.

If kids miss school that often and still get a diploma, the diploma stops meaning much. Show up or don’t pretend you earned it.

Not giving no chances to the students that feel like there slacking in education, education system is getting more problematic. Well done America.

Where the hell is that Diva from the “Faulkner Focus” show?

I thought Trump wanted the federal government out of the education system? Another Trump lie from the campaign.

It's the start of thug life. Thugerization of youths.

teachers gonna take the blame for this shit again while the actual policy failures get ignored.

Our youth deserves requirements & discipline, as well as the parents. If schools don't do their job on this issue, higher ups need to be fined until it's resolved.

Handing out diplomas to ghosts who never show up is a total fraud on taxpayers and parents. Accountability starts by dragging these failing administrative practices into the light.

Allowing them to graduate even though they know full well, that they're probably functionally illiterate. That's not racist is it?

If a student can be chronically absent and still graduate, then the system isn’t educating children—it’s manufacturing diplomas. A 40% chronic-absenteeism problem should trigger outrage, not excuses. Investigate the schools, scrutinize graduation records, hold administrators accountable— and yes, hold parents accountable when they repeatedly allow truancy. Standards mean nothing if nobody enforces them.

"False time is real." Yeah false time is all you ever said to me. Israel is all you've ever said otherwise.

You mean lib cities patronizing us as we get subpar education & services I’m surprised WTF yall expect? Til we minorities create our own wealth & get serious about Our kids future - this s*^t gonna get worse. Vote out Dems n Return to traditional values starting with God

Grand jury oversight of school practices is a serious escalation l but the real question is systemic: is 40% chronic absenteeism a failure of enforcement, or a symptom of deeper issues like housing instability, mental health, and disengaged curricula? Punishing parents alone won't fix a structural problem.

Can you blame the parents? What sane parent wants there kids to learn all about LGBTQlmnop when they should be learning things that make them useful in society?

Ballou already blew this open in 2018. Half the grads had missed three-plus months, still walked with diplomas, FBI investigated. Eight years later it's 40% citywide and the city wouldn't hand over the records.

Meanwhile, in America....

@JudgeJeanine Habitual truancy and chronic absenteeism is rampant everywhere. I was directly involved for 20 years. Too many school districts develop ‘policies’ and state legislators work around laws and shuffle the offenders from grade to grade every single year. It’s horrible!

40% chronic absenteeism is a serious warning sign. Every child deserves access to education, but addressing this properly also means understanding why students are missing school and holding schools and parents accountable where necessary.

Nothing like a grand jury to figure out why attendance sheets were optional

REMINDER: The same people trying to hold parents accountable over their kid's absences are the ones that say parents of school mass shooters are not to blame

A 40% chronic absenteeism rate is deeply concerning.

40 percent is a massive red flag for any school

My kid misses school when we are sick and cannot leave work. A fine does not fix your schedule.

According to a Google search, the chronic absenteeism rate in Detroit Public Schools is 60%. People having babies to get welfare is a very bad idea.

Education requires accountability from schools, parents, and students. If chronic absenteeism is being ignored, asking tough questions is necessary to protect children’s futures.

Doing half of the work and still being allowed to graduate is crazy!

The same is happening in colleges. College degrees are purchased regularly.

Hey
