High school student missing school for trip?

[Gumbo4x4]

That's why I pointed out that we are in Canada. Grade 9 does not go towards a "GPA"..whatever that is. Admittance is based on the final years of school. So grade nine is not important in that respect.



She said she doesn't mind. She finds school very boring and not challenging enough on a good day. She excels in all classes.

My problem is that I want to book this summer, for January, so it's not like I can talk to the school ahead of time. I was just curious if anyone found that their child had a hard time catching up when they got back. A lot of classes tend to wind down toward the end, so I thought that near the end of the semester would be better. She will still have time to study.

GPA = Grade Point Average
