18. Compulsory Full-Time Education E.C. 48200
All children between the ages 6 and 18 years must attend school full time.
All parents, guardians, and students are responsible to comply with this law.
Kindergarten students are included. They must abide with the attendance policy if they are enrolled in school 18

19. Attendance + Grades=Success
Why does this law exist?
Attendance + Grades=Success
School attendance is the strongest predictor of High School Graduation.
A high school graduate will earn about $300,000 more than a high school dropout over their lifetime. A college graduate will earn about $1,000,000 more than a high school dropout over a lifetime.
The attendance law exists back in the 18 or 1900’s to protect children from being exploited, cut back on delinquency. 19
