    Raleigh Schools' attendance policy amended due to flu season

    Thanks to a worse than normal flu season with the introduction of the novel H1N1 flu, Raleigh County Schools has amended its attendance policy for the 2009-2010 school year.

    Every Raleigh County Schools student will be given ten additional excused absences, or five additional excused absences per semester, in 2009-2010.

    At the end of the fiscal year, the school district will revert back to its old policy, Raleigh County Schools Director of Secondary Education Nelson Spencer said.


    "Safety and security don't just happen, they are the result of collective consensus and public investment. We owe our children, the most vulnerable citizens in our society, a life free of violence and fear."
