[quote=NathanBacaABC7][quote=Anonymous]Are there not truancy laws? Why aren’t kids and their parents reported after the max number of absences?[/quote] There are truancy laws. DC Code states after around 15 unexcused absences -- I don't have the exact number in front of me -- kids and their families are supposed to be referred to child protective services and the Attorney General's Office for scrutiny. We have records that indicate that rarely happens, despite students racking up those numbers of unexcused absences.[/quote]
