Child Welfare & Attendance
Child Welfare and Attendance is a student and family support service. We are here to assist families with understanding compulsory education laws, student admission and enrollment procedures, student discipline procedures, transfers to alternative programs, and school climate and safety. We are committed to:
Being advocates for students and families.
Addressing the psychosocial needs of students and families and barriers that adversely affect their attendance in school and offering support.
Partnering with schools and community agencies to support students and families to maximize student success.
Promoting good school attendance practices for PK-12 students, families and schools.
