Record #:
17850
Abstract:
In 1963, the General Assembly rewrote school attendance law which made attendance counselors compulsory and to direct state funds to the hiring of such counselors. These counselors were tasked with overseeing cases of delinquency and truancy in students under the age of sixteen. Based on specifics of certain cases, the author analyzes a counselor's option and the level of involvement by the juvenile court.
