Open Door Session: Chronic Absenteeism

Did you know that the overuse of the “unexcused” label for student absences could deepen education inequities and interfere with efforts to improve attendance? Join this session to hear about the findings of a new report, Examining Disparities in Unexcused Absences Across California Schools, and explore how to use Dataquest to examine disparities and identify bright spots in your district or county. This is the first Open Door session of the Shifting Mindsets on Chronic Absenteeism series and is targeted towards everyone who cares about improving school attendance, including policymakers, educators, advocates, community partners, families, students, researchers, and the groups helping to build capacity in schools
