Case: Truancy
When a child exceeds allowed absences, shows to school in dirty clothes, and fails in every content area due to missed work, not lack of capability, at what point does the issue go to court? The school counselor reported the issue to the district's social worker. The parent was contacted and communicated that she wanted to give up rights to her children. The worker talked the parent out of doing so. The child is still absent several times every month. At what point is the law being broken? And what is the next step?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I have always learned that as a teacher it is not just my job to teach but we are held liable to report when we think there may be something wrong. Of course you should follow all the correct 'channels' but ultimately it is important to see this through to the end |

Comments: I do not think this is a good solution. As a teacher in this situation your job is to report this to the admin, guidance counselor, or social worker. once that is done it is up to them to see it through to the end and your job as a teacher to record the absences if they continue. |
