General Information
It is the parent’s duty to require the student to attend school,
monitor the student’s attendance, and request a conference with school
officials to discuss any concerns about attendance. In HISD elementary
schools, a student may have no more than eight unexcused absences
during the school year. Also, if a student fails to attend school
without excuse, the district shall file a complaint with the Harris
County Justice of the Peace Courts against the student’s parent or
legal guardian, the student, or both. The student may also be referred
to a juvenile court.
Principals may excuse absences for personal illness, death in the
family, or other legitimate reasons. Teachers will give students an
opportunity to make up work for all absences, and students/parents
must use the established district process for appealing credit lost
because of excessive absences.
