On the high school level, I know, he can put them (the truants) on contract to attend school, and if they break that there are legal consequences, like confiscation of driver's license. I think it also includes fining the parents. But we (the schools) also ask the police to help us with the problem. And the reason why we support the ordinance is because it has immediate consequences. The police stop them and write a ticket. And they may immediately bring them back to school.
