"In 2002-03, only 10 of the 27 school districts were represented on the County (Department of Education) SAR Board. In 2003-04, that number has increased by one to 11. Membership on the County SAR Board is open to all County school districts, and all school districts—even those without SAR Boards - would benefit by their participation." Response: Anaheim City School District will have a representative on the County School Attendance Review Board.

"Periodic training of school administrators in preparing SARB-referral documentation packages would be beneficial." Response: Administrators will be trained annually to accurately review documentation submitted to them for SARB referrals. Currently, attendance clerks are trained annually on preparation of SARB referral documentation packages; this information is submitted to each school administrator for review and approval prior to placing any student on the SARB agenda. Training for administrators is scheduled for July 22, 2004. ACSD staff are proud of the systems in place to help students achieve the goal of regular school attendance and are committed to utilize a variety of strategies to work with students and families to achieve this goal.
