Which group of truants is transported to SRD for ILP reporting?

• A. Truants 16-17
• B. Truants 6-15
• C. All truants
• D. First-time truants

Answer: (A)

Age-based decisions drive whether a truant is transported to SRD for ILP reporting. The system targets older students—specifically those who are sixteen to seventeen years old—because they are at a critical point in high school where an formal Individual Learning Plan (ILP) and coordinated support are most needed to prevent dropping out. Transport to SRD for ILP reporting ensures these students receive structured planning with the school, family, and relevant agencies.

Younger truants (six to fifteen) typically receive earlier interventions or different supports that don’t involve SRD ILP reporting. Claiming all truants would overextend resources and isn’t consistent with how ILP reporting is applied. First-time truants aren’t singled out by age in this context; again, the policy centers on those nearing graduation age and needing an ILP.
