  Case: Student Absences
I have a student who has been absent a lot through the course of the few months we have been at school already.She is falling behind in her academic classes, and it very apathetic when she is in class. In an effort to help her pass all subjects I have extended myself before school and after to get her work done. She does not come. What should I do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would hold a conference with parents to see what is going on in the student's life. There may be certain unknown situations that the student is going through. Also, a conference allows for you to directly speak to the parents or guardians of that student because the student may not relay your messages to her parents. Create a bond with those parents and try to keep them involved. Suggest appropriate solutions for the problems that the student is experiencing. Speak to them and show them your concern for that student, do not approach it in an accusatory way.
