Student absenteeism and truancy during remote and hybrid learning present many issues similar to in-person instruction, but they also present unique IDEA and Section 504 challenges. Is a student not attending due to anxiety or other disability-related reasons? Does she have inadequate technology to access instruction?

From 504 eligibility to what constitutes FAPE, you'll take away practical strategies to:
