Parents Have the Right to Request Meetings
Upon the request of parents, the school must provide opportunities for regular meetings for parents to formulate suggestions and to participate, as appropriate, in decisions about the education of their children.
The school must respond to any such suggestions as soon as practicably possible.

16. Avoiding Chronic Absenteeism
Students’ school attendance is strongly correlated to academic achievement, graduation rates, and postsecondary success. 
A student is considered chronically absent after missing 10 percent or more of school days. This includes both excused and unexcused absences. Missing 10 percent of school days would be approximately 18 days in a normal 180-day school year - just two days per month.
Chronic absenteeism results in lost instructional time for students.
Site specific chronic absenteeism information can be found on the Oklahoma State Report Card at
