Students miss days of school for a host of reasons. Research studies indicate that students missing 10 percent or more of the school year typically struggle with various barriers to attendance. In addition to the demographic factors mentioned above, these barriers may include, but are not limited to: poor health, family and work responsibilities, limited transportation options and unsafe routes to school, bullying and other safety issues, homelessness, ineffective school discipline, undiagnosed disabilities or disengagement from the school system.

Chronic absenteeism, which represents lost instructional time for students, is gaining nationwide awareness. Student attendance is strongly correlated to academic achievement, graduation rates, and postsecondary success. Research indicates that schools and districts can have an impact on students absenteeism rates.

Attendance matters as early as kindergarten. Children who miss too many days in kindergarten and first grade often struggle academically in later years and have trouble mastering reading by the end of third grade. These early years are a good time to start building the habit of good attendance. By middle and high school, chronic absence, which represents lost instructional time for students, serves as a leading warning sign that a student may drop out.
