This report examines the extent of absenteeism in the District of Columbia Public Schools' (DCPS) school-based Head Start program in the 2013-2014 school year (SY). Absence rates and the share of students with satisfactory attendance improved between SY 2012-2013 and SY 2013-2014. Rates of absences declined from 9 percent to 8 percent, and the share of students with satisfactory attendance increased from 36 percent to 44 percent between the two years. The following are appended: (1) Data Sources and Limitations; (2) Characteristics of Students Participating in DCPS School-Based Head Start Programs by Ward; (3) Percent of Students Absent by Weekday among Students Enrolled for Full SY 2013-14; (4) Percent of Students Absent by Month among Students Enrolled for Full SY 2013-14; (5) Percent of Students Chronically or Severely Absent for Full Year by Attendance Category in First Month of School, SY 2013-14; (6) Percent of Students with Attendance Interventions, SY 2011-12 through SY 2013-14; (7) Characteristics of Students in DCPS School-Based Head Start Programs; and (8) Missing Observations in SY 2013-14 DCPS ChildPlus Reports 1-3 by Type.
