	Sometimes, once-in-a-lifetime chances are more important than school and you have to take the risk of a hit to your education.

	Or your child's education.

	That is what award-winning Austin-based lawyer Karen Vladeck did when she wrote her daughter a leave-of-absence note to her daughter's 1st grade teacher. You see, Vladeck and her daughter had scored the impossible to get tickets to Taylor Swift's Eras Tour.
Vladeck shared the note on Twitter. 
\u201cI actually sent it. Let\u2019s see how she responds.\u201d

In the note, Vladeck makes a ton of references to Swift songs hoping the teacher was also a fan of Taylor Swift.

	Luckily the teacher was also a Swiftie—as fans of Taylor Swift call themselves—and the note made her "ENTIRE DAY."
Vladeck's husband's response was less warm, however.
\u201cWell let\u2019s hope her reaction is better than my husband\u2019s\u201d

        1680622506
Other people's reactions were more like the teacher's. 
For example, many other Swiftie teachers said they would have been delighted with the note.
\u201c@KSVesq @LissaJoStewart @taylorswift13 as a teacher i would be like Yes enjoy and send pics and vid\u2019s !\u201d

\u201c@KSVesq @taylorswift13 As a Swiftie and a teacher, I 100% approve. \n\nNone of my students missed school though. I did. \u201cIt\u2019s me, hi, I\u2019m the problem, it\u2019s me.\u201d \ud83d\ude02\u201d

        1680622506
Many Swifties in the comments got in on the game of references to Swift's songs.

\u201c@KSVesq @taylorswift13 Hopefully she responds: \n\nI Knew You Were Trouble when you walked in.  \n\nEvermore, Teacher\u201d

\u201c@KSVesq @taylorswift13 Eh, it\u2019s just one day of school; I\u2019m sure the teacher can Shake It Off.\u201d

        1680622506
Other parents wrote in with examples of events they took their kids too after requesting leave-of-absences.
\u201c@KSVesq @taylorswift13 One year when the San Francisco Giants won the world series, we called school to say our two boys would not attend so we could go to the victory parade. The school thanked us for our honesty as half the class called in sick. Good luck.\u201d
 — KSV Eras Era (@KSV Eras Era)
        1680622506

\u201c@KSVesq @taylorswift13 I once sent a similarly humorous absence note. I was later told that his teacher found it so clever that she forwarded it around amongst her colleagues.\u201d
 — KSV Eras Era (@KSV Eras Era)
        1680622506
Finally, other people commented on the difference between the teacher's reaction and Vladeck's husband's response.
\u201c@KSVesq @taylorswift13 Just brilliant!! Loved the difference between your husband\u2019s and the teacher\u2019s response! From another legal-mummy of a young girl-Swiftie herself \u2026 kudos! \ud83d\udc4f\ud83c\udffb\u201d

Jul 11, 2025
Turning Point USA founder and MAGA influencer Charlie Kirk was harshly criticized after he claimed the death toll in the flash floods that have devastated central Texas "would not have been as high if it wasn't for DEI," ridiculously suggesting that principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion were responsible.
Kirk's comments are reflective of President Donald Trump’s broader push to dismantle federal programs focused on diversity and inclusion—part of what he pledged in his inaugural address would be a campaign to stop attempts to “socially engineer race and gender into every aspect of public and private life.”
