Full text of New Jersey New Jersey Statutes § 18a:36-25, with citation guidance and answers to common questions.

§ 18a:36-25.

The Legislature finds and declares that when a child is abducted, the first few hours

are absolutely critical in the recovery process; that the unexplained absence of

a pupil from school can be a significant early warning sign of abduction; that although

stranger abductions are rare, an efficient system of communication between school

administrators and parents regarding a student's unexplained absence must be incorporated

by our public school districts into their attendance systems; and that the benefits

of this requirement will be realized even if only one child is saved as a result.
