Addressing Chronic Absenteeism

Join PowerSchool for an in-depth discussion on improving attendance with empathy-oriented approaches combined with data-driven intervention strategies. Topics include

  • What chronic absenteeism is, and how you can support your school leaders with reduction strategies at scale  
  • How to implement research-backed family engagement strategies to improve attendance 
  • How one school district uses attendance analytics to improve chronic absenteeism 

This webinar will address chronic absenteeism with research-backed family engagement strategies and tools.

Before the pandemic, 15% (more than eight million) of U.S. students were missing three or more weeks of school per year—enough to be academically at risk. In 2020, 25% of students were missing across the country, with numbers as high as 40% in some communities.1

In the 2022-2023 school year, it’s more important than ever to boost attendance and reinforce student accountability.

Fortunately, PowerSchool Attendance Intervention provides schools and districts with best-in-class communication tools to improve attendance and ensure all students can get to school and get the most out of their learning experience. With automated engagement support and actionable attendance data, schools and families can partner to address the underlying causes of chronic absence and create strategies that resolve barriers to attending class.
