TRUANCY 

A student who is absent from school without a valid excuse for more than three days in one school year is considered truant. A student who is late to school over thirty minutes, four or more times, in one school year, is also considered truant and can be reported to the attendance officer of the local public school district. The school administration will conference with the truant student's parent or guardian prior to filing the report. In addition to reporting to the local public school district's attendance office, Holy Angels School Administration will enforce appropriate consequences in accordance with the school's disciplinary policies. 

A pupil who has been reported once as truant and who is absent again from school without a valid excuse for one or more days, or who is tardy on one or more days, can be reported again as truant to the attendance officer of the local public school district. 

A pupil is considered a habitual truant who has been reported as truant three or more times, and is subject to expulsion (Ed. Code - State of California, Section 12402) 

Students absent from school may not participate in any extracurricular activities that take place on the day of their absence. Partial day absences will be left to the discretion of the principal. ​
