Did you know? Truancy and chronic absence are actually two different things!
Truancy focuses specifically on unexcused absences-a student is considered truant after 5 unexcused absences or 5 tardies in a single semester.
Chronic Absence looks at the whole picture-missing 10% or more of the school year for any reason, including excused absences and unexcused absences!
