Re: school trauncy
If your son was out of school for only the specified days of suspension, then it would not be an unexcused absence, i.e. truant. However, if he was out longer than the specified days of suspension or on different days than the suspension notice specified without a proper excuse notice, then it may be subject to truancy.
