Chronic Absenteeism: A High School Intervention Guide
Chronic absenteeism is more than an attendance percentage. It is a student-success signal that can reflect disengagement, transportation, health, family responsibilities, work, school climate or other barriers. High schools need a practical process for moving from the signal to useful support.
THE PROBLEM
High-school support breaks down when the student story is fragmented.
Attendance data often tells schools who is missing class without explaining why. When outreach, intervention notes and ownership are fragmented, teams can identify a problem without creating a coordinated response.
