Allows excused absences for students to participate in FFA and 4-H events.

This bill amends the Michigan education code to allow excused absences for students participating in events offered by the National FFA Organization, the Michigan FFA, a 4-H club, or other livestock-related activities. The absences are excused if the student is in good academic standing and does not exceed six excused absences per school year. School boards must ensure their attendance policies align with this provision.
