TRUANCY

When a student between the ages of seven and eighteen is absent from school without a valid excuse or prior administrative permission for the absence, the absence is deemed unapproved or unexcused. In accordance with state law, unexcused (unapproved) absences may be declared truancies (NRS 392.130).

If your son/daughter is a habitual truant (3 or more unexcused absences), the truancies must be reported to law enforcement by the school and a citation will be issued by law enforcement. Habitual truancy can result in fines of $100 or more, community service, and/or the suspension of the student’s driver license or future privilege of obtaining one. Students in grades six through twelve, who have excessive absences and failing grades, may be retained at their current grade level. Please contact the school to discuss your child’s attendance.

PROMOTION to HIGH SCHOOL

Pursuant to Nevada Law AB 376, the Nevada State Board of Education ruled that students must pass (grades A, B, C, D) a total of three semesters of math during their seventh and eighth grade years. In addition, students must pass a total of three semesters of reading and/or English during the seventh and eighth grade years. We encourage you to continue to closely monitor your child's attendance and performance at school during the middle school years. Parent and school invlovement are critical to your child's success.

You are encouraged to discuss any questions regarding promotion or options available to help your child meet the requirements for promotion to the ninth grade. Please contact the Jack Lund Schofield Middle School counseling department at 799- 2290, extension 228, if you have any questions.
