HABITUAL TRUANCY is when a student is absent from school without an acceptable excuse under Wisconsin Statutes § 118.15(4) for part or all of five or more days on which school is held during a school semester.
If a student is habitually truant, parents will be notified,
and the Medford Police Department will send letters home and administer fines.
Students will be referred to court should there be 5 (five) absences more than the ten allowed parent-excused absences.
