Ennis Britton's On the Call
On the Call: Excessive Absenteeism
Adams, Adamson, Adler, Anderson, Bueller…Bueller…Bueller? While Principal Rooney may not be the best example of how to handle a student’s absence, excessive absenteeism should start to raise some red flags at the district. In this episode, Jeremy and Erin discuss a case from Michigan where the OCR determined that the school’s failure to reevaluate a student with disabilities may have resulted in a denial of FAPE. Join them as they provide practical tips on when to evaluate or reevaluate chronically absent students and how to determine if those absences are related to the student’s disability.
