At D60, it is our collective responsibility as leaders, educators, families and community members to ensure that our students not only succeed, but thrive, developing the skills and dispositions to lead lives of purpose and impact.
One critical component of ensuring our students’ success is identifying and removing barriers that hamper or limit daily attendance. When students are not at school, they not only miss out on valuable learning opportunities but can experience long-term impacts that hinder their development in reading by third grade, achievment in middle school, and graduating from high school.
One student’s absence also affects their peers and teacher, as classroom instruction often includes small group learning activities. For each student who is absent, teachers need to adjust plans, gather materials for make-up work, and follow up to get each student caught up. Make-up work does not replace the in-person learning activities that happen daily, and students miss out on important social-emotional development, as well as extra-curricular activities.
Since the pandemic, attendance rates have continued to improve. Although we are on the right track, our goal is to get attendance levels back to pre-pandemic levels.
