Key Progress Indicator

Attendance

• This indicator reveals if students and staff are well, engaged, and want to be at school or work.
• Breaking it down by student groups, like English learners, students with disabilities, and race/ethnic groups, shows to what extent social factors predict that some students have fewer opportunities to learn.
• Focusing on reducing student and staff absenteeism accounts for a number of ways that students lose instructional time and attention and experience a negative climate, such as exclusionary discipline/suspensions and time without a stable teacher.
