BCSD Attendance Policy
By law, students age 6-17 are required to attend school. An Attendance Intervention Plan(AIP) must be completed by a school representative for students who have missed 3 consecutive or 5 unlawful days. This AIP meeting is held with the student, parent/guardian, and school representatives. This is an intervention on the school level to address the issues that have prevented the student(s) from not attending school as required by law.
