MSD Wabash County board approves revised student attendance policy on second reading
Summary
The board gave final approval to the district
On Aug. 26 the MSD Wabash County School Board completed a second reading and approved revisions to board policy 45 regarding student attendance.
Board members said the revisions clarify definitions of exempt and excused absences and that staff would communicate language changes to principals and parents to reduce ambiguity. The revised language was distributed to parents after the prior board meeting so families had an early notice before formal board action.
A board member moved approval of board policy 45 (student attendance) on second reading; the board approved the policy by voice vote.
The district indicated staff would review the policy with building principals and other staff and would answer questions from parents to ensure consistent application of the definitions.
