Student attendance statutes references provision
SF 1781 creates a new section (120A.37) in Minnesota law that lists where specific student attendance rules are actually codified in other parts of the statutes. It does not change existing attendance policies but clarifies references to statutes governing age requirements, district residency, truancy, excused absences, and student reporting. This procedural bill directly affects school districts, parents, and students by making it easier to locate the relevant laws without rewording or modifying the current rules. The bill simply organizes existing references, such as pointing to sections on truancy (260A.02) or excused absences (120A.22, subd. 12), without creating new requirements.
