Attendance & Absence

Showing Up Matters

In California, all children are required by law to attend school between the ages of 6 and 18, and must have good attendance records as well. The state defines legally truant as a student who misses school with a combination of the following types of absences without a valid excuse: 

  • three unexcused absences and/or
  • three tardies and/or
  • three absences of more than 30 minutes
