JCCS Academic Language Assessment Week 28 - Truant Students

Should Global Positioning System (GPS) devices be required for habitually truant students?   I think it shouldn't. In my opinion chipping someone with a GPS just seem a little too irrational. I think for this for many reasons; for example, to be chipped by someone so they know at all times where you are seems unnecessary to me because even though truant students should be kept supervised putting a GPS chip on them is going to the extremes. The element of this all is students ditching and not attending school. This isn't a good thing but it can be resolved by doing other things. To restrain their conduct schools should just call their parents to inform them that their kid hasn't attended school. This administers that they're others ways to control the situation besides using a GPS system on students.
