Please be advised that according to the Texas Education Code, a student may not be given credit for a class unless the student is in attendance for at least 90% of the days the class is offered. This law does not distinguish between excused and unexcused absences.
It is the parent’s duty to monitor the student’s school attendance and require the student to attend school. In the event that the parent or student is found in violation of the Texas Compulsory Attendance Law, they would be subject to prosecution under the Texas Education Code.
