It seems that no one is aware about the UFT win on that. <br /><br />You forgot to mention one thing - for guidance counselor's, social workers, and psychologists (who still work under the old S/U rating system) - if you go over 10 days in one year ***even with MD notes*** you can still get a U rating for time/attendance. No, it is not an automatic thing. It is completely the principal's choice!! Therefore, if you are on your principal's bad side, he can absolutely give a U rating, EVEN WITH MD NOTES! Again, it is completely the principal's DISCRETION. I hate to say this, but this is a reason why you should show respect and be kind to your principal.
