Truancy
Truancy is defined as absence from school/class without permission. Cutting a class or school event during the school day constitutes truancy. When a student is absent, he/she is considered truant if the parent/guardian fails to verify the student’s whereabouts. Students who are truant will not be readmitted to class until a conference is held with the student, parents and an administrator. When a student has been truant, the student will not be allowed to make up missed work.
