The policy is that a student is held back if they miss.... 0. 0. In NYC, the policy is that a student is held back if they miss 10% of the school year which amounts to approx 18 days. And if parents are not informing the school daily of absences, you can expect a visit from truant officers...but I think that is only in upper grades.
Statewide, more than 25% of students are chronically absent, which is now defined as missing more than 10 days in a school year. Exactly how many are truant is unclear. Part of the problem, some say, is the lack of reliable data on truancy. Districts must submit data annually to the state, but there is little consistency in how districts derive that data. The state no longer even reports it.
