Attendance, Truancy, and Withdrawal Policy
Recent changes in law have substantially altered the attendance and truancy calculation and reporting requirements. Significantly, recent legislation removes the obligation to engage in the stringent absence intervention team and planning process that previously existed in law for students deemed habitually truant. Changes in law also have repealed a school’s obligation to give notice of truancy to the Registrar of Motor Vehicles. The Budget Bill further altered the definition of a student who is excessively absence—now referred to as “chronically absent”—as a student who is absent for more than 10% of the minimum number of hours required in the school year. The Revised Policy will be reviewed at the upcoming Board meeting on October 27, 2025 at 3:30 p.m. At this public meeting an opportunity for stakeholder feedback will be provided
