Dear Parents/Guardians,
We want to bring your attention to important changes in the law regarding Compulsory School Attendance in West Virginia, specifically state code §18-8-4. Please note that these changes are mandated by state law and are not decisions made by Hardy County Schools.
According to the updated state law, the following are the only recognized excused absences:
- Medical or dental appointments with a written excuse from a physician or dentist
- Personal illness or injury of the student or a family member (limited to 10 per year)
- Death in the family
- Judicial obligations or court appearances
- Military requirements for students who are enlisted or enlisting
Any other absences will be classified as unexcused.
To ensure proper recording of absences, please provide documentation to the school within 3 instructional days after your child returns. If this documentation is not submitted within the specified timeframe, the absence will be marked as unexcused.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and understand the concerns that may arise from this change. However, it is important to emphasize that we must follow state law.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in prioritizing school attendance.
Sincerely,
Hardy County Schools Attendance Office
