Amends the Compulsory Attendance Article of the School Code. Provides that any person having custody or control of a child subject to the Article to whom notice has been given of the child's truancy and who knowingly and willfully permits such a child to persist in his or her truancy within that school year must complete a parent education course or undergo family counseling upon a finding by the school board of a violation (instead of providing that the person is guilty of a Class C misdemeanor and is subject to not more than 30 days imprisonment or a fine of up to $500 or both upon conviction thereof).
