What are districts actually doing to improve attendance and decrease chronic absenteeism? And how well-aligned is it to root causes, especially in high-absenteeism contexts? I address these questions in a new @AnnenbergInst working paper: edworkingpapers.com/ai24-932

Excited to share our latest paper: Social-Emotional Well-Being for High School Students: Guidance for School and System Policy and Practice rand.org/pubs/research_… via @RANDCorporation with @WallsEdLead Brief thread on our top takeaways. 1/6

In 2022, nearly 13.8 million students were chronically absent. Frequent absences can cause students to fall behind, but community schools are a research-based strategy that schools can adopt to address the underlying issues. Blog by @ekgermain: learningpolicyinstitute.org/blog/transform…

Shout out to our amazing partners in Elk Hills! #CoordinatorsRock indeed.

Great new report from @ekgermain @lehernandez02 and colleagues detailing how four California community schools are approaching chronic absenteeism. A lot in here is not unique to community schools (eg, data tracking, MTSS) but two key things stood out to me. 1/4
