This flier for families, available in English and Spanish, explains the Texas Education Agency codes for excused absences for health care appointments, including medical, dental, psychological and special education services and the process for working with school attendance personnel. Families use the information with school personnel who, for example, erroneously tell the family that their child's dental appointment is unexcused. The information is also helpful to care providers who have families miss appointments due to misinformed school personnel. Adaptable to other medical-legal partnerships.
