Faltas

[ROBINDESBOIS]

How do we say faltas in a school context?
Ejemplo.
Tienes 20 faltas hasta ahora. Absences maybe? Or you ve been absent 20 times.

Or: you have had 20 days of absence (yours is better, because the 20 days are not all consecutive)

You can also use a more direct translation,

You have missed twenty days of class...
