Truancy petitions are filed by the school district. School officials are mandated to file a truancy petition if a youth has seven unexcused absences in a month or 10 unexcused in one year. These petitions require the youth to attend school every day, every period, on time, and can also hold the parent responsible for chronic truancy.
