TRUANCY
A student absent from school without a valid excuse is considered a truant. In the event that the school suspects that a student is truant, the school administration will contact the parent/guardian. If the school suspects that the student is a habitual truant (absent three (3) times in one (1) school year without a valid excuse) and all resources at the school level have been exhausted, the school principal can notify the local public Child Welfare and Attendance authorities. These students are subject to dismissal.
