TRUANCY
Every student is expected to attend school daily and be on time for class. If a student is absent from class without a valid excuse or leaves class without the teacher's permission, s/he is considered truant. Truancy also includes students who are more than 30 minutes late to school without a verified reason, or "ditching" part or the whole of a period. This also applies to unverified/unexcused absences.
CONSEQUENCES
Parent is notified of the truancy by an Assistant Principal. A student may receive a failing grade for unexcused absences exceeding 10 days per semester. Habitual truancy will result in a suspension from school and a referral to the School Attendance Review Board (SARB). The SARB process is controlled by the juvenile court system and may result in a court appearance, fine and/or a weekend in a juvenile detention facility.
