📣 New State Attendance Rules – What Families Need to Know
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Adams County Ohio Valley Schools

Ohio has updated how student attendance is tracked statewide with HB 96. Here’s what families need to know ⬇️

📊 What’s Changing?

Ohio now includes all absences (excused & unexcused) when identifying students who are chronically absent.
➡️ Chronic absenteeism = 10% of missed school days (about 2+ days per month)
➡️ Even excused absences count

🚨 Truancy Rules (Unexcused Absences Only – these laws remain the same)

⚠️ 30+ hours unexcused (consecutive)
⚠️ 42+ hours unexcused in one month
⚠️ 72+ hours unexcused in a year

📌 What Families Must Do

✔️ Call the school within 1 hour of the start of the school day
✔️ Send written documentation (note, email, doctor slip) when your child returns

❤️ Why This Matters

Missing school = missing:
✨ Learning
✨ Relationships
✨ Opportunities

STRIVE FOR 5 – EVERY DAY COUNTS

We are proud to announce that the staff and students of North Adams High School have earned the PBIS Gold Award for the 2024-2025 school year!

What does that mean? A PBIS Gold Award signifies a school's highest level of achievement in implementing the Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports framework, meaning they have established a comprehensive, data-driven system for promoting positive behavior across all three tiers of support.

The specific number of gold awards given out for 2025 is not yet available. However, in the 2023-2024 school year there were only 48 gold award recipients in the state of Ohio, according to ODEW. This is a very high achievement and we are proud of the hard work that our staff and students put in every day to make this happen! It's a great day to be a Green Devil!
