Although school’s been back in person for over a year now, districts across the country are still struggling with chronic absenteeism. A recent study confirmed what we’re hearing in the news: students have simply not returned to school. But some districts have it figured out. We’ll be talking to Juan Duenas, Executive Director for Administration from Sheldon ISD, and John Hernandez, Director of Student Services from East Central ISD, about how they have seen attendance improving in their districts.
Drawing upon real-life case studies from LEAs, this webinar will discuss evidence-based strategies and innovative approaches that have proven successful in combating student absenteeism. From fostering a culture of inclusivity and engagement to implementing targeted interventions, you’ll learn practical steps that can be taken at individual, school, and district levels to support attendance improvement.
Absenteeism has a profound impact on the educational outcomes and overall well-being of students. That is why it’s crucial to learn from folks who have implemented strategies that work.
