West Monona's policy is that students will complete their work and tests. Students don't have the option to not care, give up, or take the (F) regarding their academics. We wouldn't be doing our jobs as educators if we allowed teenagers to make the decision to just take the F. Too many Fs leads to no diploma, and no diploma can lead to fewer employment options as an adult. Therefore, failing high school students will be required to attend afternoon learning lab starting on Monday, 12/12/22.
