I was worried that my son would get benched during his football game at age 5 due to missed practices.. we take sports seriously around here.lolMe too, and I was the valedictorian of my class of 1986. Over the years I've had no problem pulling my own kids out of school for a few days for a family vacation as long as they keep up with the work. When they were younger I told the school we were going to Disney, but in high school I have to say they are out sick because the varsity coaches won't let the kids play if they miss practice and are not sick - they are worse than the teachers when it comes to attendance!
But high school is a lot more tough with that for sure! I'm glad your family has been able to work around it!
