RE-1 Valley School District Community Engagement Plan Re-1 staff is obligated by law to report any type of child neglect we observe at school. Excessive absences can be viewed as a form of educational neglect when the student’s educational progress is being negatively impacted by the lack of attendance. If a student continues to have an excessive amount of absences a DHS report for educational neglect will be made. Step 1 Any student that has reached a total of 4 unexcused or excused absences in a month will receive a phone check in from the Family Community Coordinator. ( to assist with resources if necessary) If the Family Community Coordinator cannot contact a family after 3 attempts a home visit will occur. Step 2 Any student that has reached 7 absences excused or unexcused will receive a phone call and a possible check-in meeting will be scheduled with administration. During this meeting the student/parent questionnaires will be completed. If attendance does not improve a community engagement board meeting will be scheduled with parents, students, and community members. Step 3 Any student that reaches 10 absences (excused or unexcused) a community engagement board meeting will be scheduled and contracts with the student and parent will be signed. Step 4 Any student that has reached 16 or more absences judicial proceeding may be imitated with approval from superintendent and administrator. Step 5 Every school will continue to mail attendance letters to parents for 7, 10, 15, days or more of absences. All schools need to send the names of students receiving attendance letters to the Family Community Coordinators. We will meet weekly with building administrators to discuss any new attendance issues, review and assess current plans in place and touch base with how things are going. Policy JH The maximum number of unexcused absences a student may incur before judicial proceedings are initiated to enforce compulsory attendance is 10 days during any calendar year or school year.
