Sick students stressed out

Students go to school sick because they are stressed about their school work. Teachers cram so much work into one day that students fear their grades will drop if they miss one day of school because they are sick.

Since there is so much going on in one day of school and teachers put so much on their plates, students will still come to school stressed out and super sick. Which is not okay.

If teachers and parents stop stressing kids out about their school work, I’m sure students will stop coming to school so stressed out that they get sick.
