Understanding and Addressing School Absenteeism
Every Day Counts
Regular school attendance is essential for student success. When students are frequently absent, they miss out on important learning experiences, fall behind in their coursework, and can struggle to keep up academically and socially.
Why Attendance Matters
Academic Achievement: Students who attend school regularly are more likely to read at grade level, perform well on assessments, and graduate on time.
Social Development: Being in school helps students build friendships, develop social skills, and feel connected to their school community.
Future Success: Good attendance habits now set the foundation for responsibility and dependability later in life, including college and career readiness.
