Klobuchar introduces National Anti-Truancy legislation:
"With debate over the reauthorization of major education law heating up, U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar today introduced the “Student Attendance Success Act” to help schools better address the challenge of truancy, especially for students in the middle-school years. The bill is cosponsored with North Carolina Senator Kay Hagan, and Klobuchar said she wants it included in the reauthorization of No Child Left Behind.
Citing the need for more effective federal support of the nation’s K-12 schools, Klobuchar also called for significant reform of the No Child Left Behind law, which is up for reauthorization by Congress this year."
