Should perfect attendence awards be discontinued?
No? - Kids that are stupid get awards too (like someone I know) - Awards kids that try hard to be at school and really make an effort Yes? - Encourages kids to go to school even if they're sick - Contagious illnesses - Is unfair if you are seriously sick, can't go to school and your mom lectures you about not getting enough awards (like my mom) Okay, these aren't excellent reasons, but what do you think? I know it's not a big issue (maybe not an issue at all), but I'd appreciate your opinions. If you're curious, I don't think there should be perfect attendence awards because I always strive to get an award or two, but I have .. how do I put this.. Erm illnesses (asthma, exzema, more), sometimes I just can't make it to school. To see someone that fails all the time, but still comes to school every day and get that award gets on my nerves because I work REALLY REALLY hard (and my teachers say so too) in the time that I am at school.  Oh well, what do you think?

Yes, it should be allowed for goods, not for effortless students. Perfect attendance award should include people who attend, work hard and get good grades.
So what if the student get sick, who fault is that? unless they're force to be sick. Student should be responsible for their health. |

Student should be responsible for their health.  It's no one's fault. Bacteria and viruses aren't anyone's fault. One cant' control their health. They can try their best to keep themselves well, but there are times where you get sick and can't go to school.
