Absenteeism is a major issue in schools, placing a heavy burden on students & parents to make up work.
The greater burden falls on teachers though, who must create a system to ensure students can stay caught up. With absences increasing, this adds even more tasks to already full teacher plates.

Student: Can you explain this? I don't get it
Me: Sure. What don't you get about it?
Student: Well, I wasn't really paying attention when you were teaching, so I don't know what any of this is about
Me: Ah

Humanitarian law is to be respected, especially in Gaza. Please, let no more innocent blood be shed, neither in the Holy Land nor in Ukraine, nor in any other place! Enough! Wars are always a defeat, always!
