Poor attendance follows graduates to court
Contact information for school attendance clerks provided
On May 29, 194 students graduated from LaRue County High School.
On June 3, bench warrants were issued for six of them who decided to skip a required court appearance.
Their offense? Missing too many days of school.
District Judge C. Derek Reed issued the $1,000 cash bench warrants to compel the 18- and 19-year-olds to abide by an agreement he made with each of them at an earlier court date: Show proof of graduation in court on June 3 and misdemeanor charges of intentional breach of compulsory attendance law would be dropped.
