During the interview, inform the participant of the following:

Complete the following to establish good cause:
 
Review the claim for good cause to determine whether the participant meets any of the noncompliance good cause reasons.
When the reason for the good cause claim is not included in School Attendance Good Cause Reasons, request the participant provide verification of the claim for good cause.
When the participant fails or is unable to respond to the request for verification of good cause, treat any reason for claiming good cause as a valid claim allowing a participant statement as verification.
