Comment Period | Ended on 4/1/2012 |
The VEA supports these proposed regulations. It is in the best interest of students and schools to collect and track information related to truancy. Early, effective intervention at the school level is crucial to student success, and any efforts to coordinate and systematize these interventions is a positive step.
