One of the keys to student success is being in the classroom each and every day. As such, the State of Texas has in place laws (Texas Education Code and Texas Family Code) that require a student to be in attendance each school day for the entire time instruction is provided. Two state laws, one dealing with compulsory attendance, the other with attendance for course credit, are of special interest to students and parents.
