1)  4th unexcused absence or 4th tardy of more than 30 minutes or the 9th parent excused absence, a school suspension or 
frequent behavior problems (this could include consistent tardies of less than 30 minutes at principal's discretion).

Parent will be signing SART (Student Attendance Review Team)
 
2)  5th unexcused absence or 5th tardy of more than 30 minutes or the 10th parent excused absence, a school suspension or frequent behavior problems (this could include consistent tardies of less than 30 minutes at principal's discretion).

3)  6th unexcused absence or 6th tardy of more than 30 minutes or the 11th parent excused absence, a school suspension or frequent behavior problems (this could include consistent tardies of less than 30 minutes at principal's discretion). 
 
YOU WILL RECEIVE 3rd SARB LETTER 
THE 3rd LETTER MAKES THE ATTENDANCE/DISCIPLINE PROBLEM A LEGAL PROBLEM! 
 
From this point on, there is no more school intervention. The problem is now in the district SARB process and, if not corrected. The problem will become a court matter. No issued SARB letter may be withdrawn or "worked off" with detention or community service
 
What may be the result? 
 
  • You child's attendance/behavior may be monitored for the rest of his/her public education life. 
  • You and your child may agree to a contract for attendance/behavior. 
  • You and your child may be referred to 20 weekly counseling classes. 
  • You child may be referred to an alternative school program. 
  • You may be referred to court. 
A court referral may result in a fine, mandated community services, or jail time. The court may monitor your child's school attendance until he/she receives a GED or high school diploma. 
 
If your family plans a vacation, let the school know so that your child can be dropped from school to avoid SARB. It is the policy of Cutler-Orosi JUSD that when you return, your child may re-enroll in his/her home school but there is no guarantee that the original class will be available.
