This is a computer automated phone call from MPS (Milwaukee Public Schools) alerting you to your child's absence.
It calls every time your child is marked absent from school. From K-4 Through 12th Grade Graduation. I get one EVERY TIME & if the machine catches it, it DOES play on MY answering machine.
MY kids haven't EVER attempted to "skip" school, so if they're not at school, I already know about it, but it's good for kids who deviate from school on a regular basis, OR for split custody situations...You would KNOW IF the responsible parent is getting the child to school or not.
Annoying, but necessary! :-)
