Every school day is an opportunity to learn, connect, and grow. Chronic absenteeism means missing 10% or more of the school year—about two days a month—for any reason. Missed school can add up and affect learning, relationships, and a student’s long-term success.
September allows our school/district to start the conversation, raise awareness, understand why students miss school, and work together to remove barriers to regular attendance. The good news? We know that when we work together, we can improve attendance by building strong relationships, establishing routines, supporting your student(s), and providing support when challenges arise.
💙 Let’s work together to help every student stay connected, engaged, and on track!👉 Explore resources, tools, and strategies from the Nebraska Department of Education:
