Florida H1181 mandates school attendance enforcement and early intervention for truancy.

Florida H1181 requires district school boards to implement a mandatory alert system to notify school administrators, the child study team, and parents when a student reaches the truancy threshold for absences. If a student has at least five unexcused absences within a calendar month, 10 unexcused absences within a 90-calendar-day period, or more than 15 unexcused absences in a 90-calendar-day period, the superintendent of schools may file a truancy petition seeking early truancy intervention.
