Modifying school attendance requirements related to children who are undergoing military entrance processing or who are engaged in military service

This bill modifies school attendance requirements related to children who are undergoing military entrance processing or who are engaged in military service. Current law requires the parent, guardian, or legal or actual custodian of a child who is of compulsory attendance age to cause the child to attend public school or an accredited nonpublic school, or place the child under competent private instruction or independent private instruction, during a school year.24 (religious groups exempted from school standards). The bill adds additional exemptions for children who are undergoing military entrance processing or who are engaged in military service.
