<p>I totally believe your experience, but ours has been different. I think it must depend (like so many things!) on the particular kids, and the HS curriculum. Our kids go to a very selective private school with a supposedly demanding curriculum, and it really hasn’t been a big deal for them to miss school. It might change- they aren’t done yet- but so far so good. And trust me, they’d sooo tell us.</p>
