Why Does Attendance Matter?

Key Messages

  • Attendance drive achievement. Students who attend school regularly are more likely to succeed academically and graduate on time.

  • Missing school adds up. Even a few days absent each month can equal weeks of lost learning by the end of the year.

  • Habits start early. Strong attendance patterns in elementary school set the foundation for middle and high school success

  • It's everyone's responsibility. Families, schools. and communities must work together to reduce chronic absenteeism.
