* Excused absences: These are absences due to illness, medical appointments, family emergencies, etc., with proper documentation. A certain number of excused absences generally won't result in disciplinary action. However, excessive excused absences *can* still raise concerns and lead to intervention.
* Unexcused absences: These are absences without a valid reason or documentation. These are the ones that trigger consequences much more quickly. The exact number before action is taken isn't publicly stated as a specific number but is handled on a case-by-case basis. Frequent unexcused absences can lead to truancy referrals and potential legal action.
To find the exact policy and the process for excused vs. unexcused absences, you should contact Conroe ISD directly or check their official website. Their student handbook will detail attendance policies and procedures.
