Attendance Officers and the Expanded Bureau Roles
The Attendance Bureau replaces the former board and handles compulsory education enforcement, the newsboy law, and a full census of children aged four to eighteen. Attendance officers work house to house to improve school attendance, uncovering poverty and family issues and guiding children toward vocational training. Applicants numbered over 4,000, but only a few hundred may become eligible after exams and physicals. Officers earn from ten to fifteen hundred dollars yearly.
