Child Welfare and Attendance

Programs and Resources:

The office of Child Welfare and Attendance provides services for the District, parents and students through a number of ways. While our most important role for the District is to manage the attendance systems for the schools, we are responsible for many areas where we interact with parents and students. Some of these areas include:

  • Attendance

  • Student Attendance Review Board (SARB)

  • Truancy

  • Health and Welfare

  • Inter & Intradistrict Transfers

  • Enrollment Verification

  • Behavior Intervention

Homeless Youth:

Banning Unified School District receives McKinney-Vento funds and offers services to students and families who qualify under the act including, but not limited to transportation to school, registration assistance, providing materials for school, helping parents obtain a diploma or receive post high school education, referrals to food and clothing sources and emergency assistance with utilities.  For more details please contact, Dr. Wolford, Director Student Services, (951) 922-0240 Ext. 300001.

Banning Unified School District is committed to all of its students especially those whose circumstances may require extra attention and support in order for the student to feel connected to school and find school success.  For details regarding Foster Youth Services please contact Student Services.
