Sophomore year of highschool my school had a new attendance policy where if you miss more than 4 days of class you automatically failed the class unless you did after school detention for each day of class pass 4 that you missed. What made the rule stupid was that there were no excuses allowed, so that if you were sick for 5 or 6 days you’d either fail or have to do a bunch of after school detention. The school changed it the next year to allow for excused absences, which is what it should’ve been to begin with.
