The legislature finds and declares:
a. That there is a growing recognition of the prevalence and consequences of child abuse.
b. That the removal of children from school constitutes a deprivation in itself and may be an indicator of even more grievous abuses.
c. That the public schools can and should provide an early warning to the appropriate authorities when a child appears to be missing from the educational system.
