     (a) Fact-Finding Hearings.  The Court shall, upon the
filing of a truancy petition, set the date for a fact-
finding hearing unless it enters a stay of proceedings.  The
Petitioner may serve a copy of the notice of hearing,
petition for truancy and supporting declaration separately
to the child and parent(s) or legal guardian(s) at their
last known address by certified mail return receipt
requested.  If certified mail is unsuccessful or receipt is
not signed by addressee, personal service shall be required.
The notice shall advise the parties of their rights and
options under RCW 13.32 and the right to present evidence at
the hearing.  The Clerk shall also notify the school
district of the date and time of hearing.  If the school
district obtains an order continuing the hearing, the
district shall provide notice, by mail to any party that has
not approved the order.  It shall file proof of mailing with
the Court.

     (b) Contempt Proceedings.  The school district shall
personally serve a party alleged to be in contempt of a
truancy order at least five court days, not including the
day of service, before the hearing.  The documents to be
served will include the motion, declaration, and order to
show cause.  The child shall also be served with the notice
of appointment of counsel.  If the party alleged to be in
contempt of an order compelling attendance was not present
at the fact-finding hearing, the district shall provide
evidence that the party had notice of the terms of the
order.  This evidence may be in the form of a declaration,
under oath, that the party has been served with the order,
either personally or by a form of mail requiring a return
receipt.
