[Publib] skipping school

[Ann Bever]

School started this week and we're already seeing older kids playing hookie.  I called one of our nearby high schools asking if they could send a truancy officer over and their reply was they don't have an off-campus patrol and to call 911 on the kids.

I'm not too keen on calling 911 for school skippers so I thought I'd ask others on how best to deal with a situation like this.  In our case, we let them know we were aware of what they were doing and told them there WAS a truancy officer who regularly patroled the libraries.
