Abstract | Each school year, approximately 6.8 million students miss at least 15 days of school, putting their academic success at risk and making them chronically absent as defined by the federal government. This report provides case studies that detail specific ways cities are leading efforts to get students to school each day. Case studies for the following locations are detailed in this report: (1) Baltimore, Maryland; (2) Grand Rapids, Michigan; (3) State of New Jersey and Paterson City; and (4) Tacoma, Washington. Looking across the four case study sites in this spotlight, one can see several differences in definitions, data collection procedures, and strategies for addressing absenteeism. Examining these differences can help local leaders determine the structures and interventions most appropriate for their own context. (ERIC). |
