  • The Missouri Supreme Court has upheld a state law that can send parents to jail if their child misses too much school.
  • The law had been challenged by two mothers who were charged after their children each missed 15 days of school.
  • They argued that the law, which requires that children attend school "on a regular basis", was too vague.
  • The Court ruled that the parents received proper notice and "knowingly failed to cause their child to attend school".
