School district are responsible for taking legal action for violations of compulsory school attendance laws. Parents, guardians, or persons in charge are responsible for their student’s attendance at school. California Compulsory Education Law Requires that everyone between the ages of six and eighteen years of age to attend school, except sixteen and seventeen year-olds who have graduated from high school or have passed the California High School Proficiency EXAM and obtained parental permission to leave.

Early Interventions When students begin missing school, early intervention is critical. The first step in this process is to ensure that student attendance, including both excused and unexcused absences, are routinely tracked and reviewed by school site personnel. Daily proactive phone calls ex; Attendance Clerks, Liaisons, Counselors and Teachers, etc. Parent and student conferences SST meetings, AP meetings, SART meeting etc.

Home-Visits for identified students Liaisons conduct home-visits, transport student and assist with attendance interventions.

Community Connections Referrals to appropriate agencies when needed ex. Attendance letters mailed to the home A2A automated system or attendance clerks

Continued Interventions Individual attendance Incentives Rewards for small strides make a difference to a child Teacher and School Site Incentives Rewards for teachers and sites who make a difference in children's lives encourages continued effort.
