  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 first suggest that you find out why she is missing so many days. Is it something serious or is she just skipping. I would then want to have a meeting with the parent about the amount absences she has. I would explain to the parent that this will have long term affects on her over all education. She will find herself being behind in her class as well possibly future classes. I would then come up with a plan that would work on getting her caught up.

Comments: I like how you made sure to include setting up a plan to help her get caught up. It is more than just finding out why she is absent and prevention as you have also made it about her getting back on track. Great ideas!
