A bill in the Maryland state Legislature would grant school students excused absences for mental health reasons.
Under the proposed law, students would be allowed to skip school once every quarter — without needing a doctor’s note.
Sponsored by Del. Alonzo Washington D-Prince George’s, the legislation aims to alleviate mental health problems exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Right now, we know mental health and mental illness is running rampant, especially among students,” Washington told Capital News Service.
And of course later in life when the student is now an adult, those mental health day will be used against to deny things like firearm ownership, flying, etc.
