Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Education Policy Brief summarizes the research and data analysis completed by the Center for Evaluation and Education Policy (CEEP) on Indiana's student attendance and absenteeism data. The study was initiated by The Indiana Partnerships Center and conducted by CEEP with funding from USA Funds and State Farm. Additional partners in the study are the Marion County Commission on Youth, Net Literacy, and Attendance Works. The intended use of the study is to inform educators, families, community partners, and policymakers about the status of attendance in Indiana and the degree to which poor attendance impacts student achievement and attainment. Findings indicate that although the majority of schools report good average daily attendance, chronic absenteeism occurs in schools in all areas of Indiana. This brief quantifies the prevalence of chronic absenteeism in Indiana and describes the impact of chronic absenteeism on achievement and graduation at the student, school, and locality level. Additionally, best practices for improving attendance are discussed, and examples of successful interventions provided. This brief concludes with a set of recommendations for education leaders and policymakers to consider that will ensure sufficient attention, reporting, and action to reduce chronic absenteeism in Indiana and help improve academic outcomes for thousands of Hoosier students. (Contains 7 figures and 5 tables.).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Absent from School, Gottfried and Hutt offer a comprehensive and timely resource for educators and policy makers seeking to understand the scope, impact, and causes of chronic student absenteeism. The editors present a series of studies by leading researchers from a variety of disciplines that address which students are missing school and why, what roles schools themselves play in contributing to or offsetting patterns of absenteeism, and ways to assess student attendance for purposes of school accountability. The contributors examine school-based initiatives that focus on a range of issues, including transportation, student health, discipline policies, and protections for immigrant students, as well as interventions intended to improve student attendance. Only in the past two or three years has chronic absenteeism become the focus of attention among policy makers, civil rights advocates, and educators. Absent from School provides the first critical, systematic look at research that can inform and guide those who are working to ensure that every child is in school and learning every day.

Book excerpt: School absenteeism and truancy confront educators on a daily basis. While public school districts in the U.S. experience daily rates of absenteeism, in the Los Angeles Unified school District (LAUSD), over 26,000 students miss school each day, totaling over 130,500 student absences each week. Regardless of whether these absences are excused (e.g., illness or bereavement) or unexcused (lack of transportation, vacation extensions, etc.), when students are absent from school they miss out on valuable instructional time. Data reveal that children with chronic rates of absenteeism have a more difficult time keeping up with their peers academically, are less likely to pass future courses and graduate high school, and are susceptible to detrimental social influences such as gang violence, drug use, and teen pregnancy. Nationally, 1 in 10 kindergartners are considered "chronically absent"; in LAUSD, 1 in 5 kindergartners is chronically absent, double the national rate. Further, for African- American kindergartners in LAUSD, the rate jumps to 1 in 3. In fact, kindergartners have the highest rates of chronic absence of all grade levels in the District. A growing body of research demonstrates that missing school in kindergarten highly correlates with poor student achievement in later grades however, yet very little is known about why our youngest students are missing so much school and what might be done to prevent excessive absence in the first place. In 2012, LAUSD developed a pilot Attendance Improvement Plan (AIP) to reveal the underlying reasons for this 1 in 3 statistic. This study used that data to reveal which LAUSD schools saw increases in attendance and which failed to make those improvements. After selecting a sample from each of these groups, I interviewed Principals, Teachers, and Attendance Improvement Counselors (Counselors) from six schools to examine what factors contributed to improved school attendance and how these staff members implemented strategies and ideas for doing so. Results from the study reveal recommendations about how to improve kindergarten attendance rates for the 2013-2014 school year.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classroom management is a topic of enduring concern for teachers, administrators, and the public. It consistently ranks as the first or second most serious educational problem in the eyes of the general public, and beginning teachers consistently rank it as their most pressing concern during their early teaching years. Management problems continue to be a major cause of teacher burnout and job dissatisfaction. Strangely, despite this enduring concern on the part of educators and the public, few researchers have chosen to focus on classroom management or to identify themselves with this critical field. The Handbook of Classroom Management has four primary goals: 1) to clarify the term classroom management; 2) to demonstrate to scholars and practitioners that there is a distinct body of knowledge that directly addresses teachers’ managerial tasks; 3) to bring together disparate lines of research and encourage conversations across different areas of inquiry; and 4) to promote a vigorous agenda for future research in this area. To this end, 47 chapters have been organized into 10 sections, each chapter written by a recognized expert in that area. Cutting across the sections and chapters are the following themes: *First, positive teacher-student relationships are seen as the very core of effective classroom management. *Second, classroom management is viewed as a social and moral curriculum. *Third, external reward and punishment strategies are not seen as optimal for promoting academic and social-emotional growth and self-regulated behavior. *Fourth, to create orderly, productive environments teachers must take into account student characteristics such as age, developmental level, race, ethnicity, cultural background, socioeconomic status, and ableness. Like other research handbooks, the Handbook of Classroom Management provides an indispensable reference volume for scholars, teacher educators, in-service practitioners, and the academic libraries serving these audiences. It is also appropriate for graduate courses wholly or partly devoted to the study of classroom management.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although high rates of absenteeism at the secondary school level have long been recognized as a significant problem, low attendance in elementary schools is often overlooked. Research suggests that one in 10 students younger than grade three nationwide is considered chronically absent, defined as missing 10 percent or more of the school year. This Information Capsule reviews the causes and consequences of early chronic absenteeism. In addition, research-based strategies for combating early chronic absenteeism are provided. Attendance rates at Miami-Dade County Public Schools' elementary schools are summarized and a brief description of a multidisciplinary truancy prevention and intervention pilot program operating in 10 of the District's schools is provided. Suggestions for elementary schools, based on the research reviewed for this paper, include starting interventions early, addressing parental barriers and challenges that inhibit consistent school attendance, coordinating with parents and community agencies to intervene on behalf of chronically absent students, and contacting parents as soon as troubling patterns of absences begin to appear. (Contains 1 table.).

Book excerpt: Abstract: The perceptions of stakeholders within a school community regarding student attendance are indicative of the critical importance of attending school, particularly in the early grades, as it relates to social and academic growth. Different forms of research and practice when exploring the factors that affect school attendance may help identify challenges that impede equity in education. This case study allowed African American parents/guardians and school leaders to use their voice to address the importance of school attendance and advocate for their students who encounter issues with chronic absenteeism and its effect on their academic achievement and behavior. The portraiture methodology used to develop a narrative and story for each participant centered on their perceptions of student attendance and chronic absenteeism. Their perceptions were then interpreted and discussed through the theoretical lens of critical race theory. In addition to interviews, this research utilized observations and document analysis to explore the stakeholders' perceptions of attendance and absenteeism at a predominantly African American elementary school in an urban area of Southern California.

This book was released on 2021-08-17 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a practical learning guide for planning strategies to address student absenteeism. It provides administrators, teachers, outreach workers, social workers, attendance specialists, clerks, and other professionals with information and potential planning solutions for dealing with students (who are absent from school consistently) and their parents/guardians. Ideally, this book will guide schools to create a campus plan to tackle this issue efficiently and appropriately. The focus of this book/guide is to provide recommendations to Alternative, Middle, Elementary, and High School staff for structuring a detailed plan to manage school absenteeism. Schools must have a clear goal, complete with names, responsibilities, time frames, proof of completion, and resources to be effective. Early intervention is the key to identifying truant students and getting results, and this guidebook provides the structure for staff to implement such a plan and initiate early intervention. Throughout this guide, I will use the term "truancy" and "absenteeism" interchangeably, recognizing that truancy is a legal issue. At the same time, students miss school for other reasons (with or without their parents' consent). As all school professionals know, students who are not on campus cannot learn, and the more they miss, the greater their chances are of becoming dropouts, thus affecting their entire life experience. Many campus personnel who are assigned the responsibility of students' data and attendance are not trained adequately. They lack knowledge of local board policy, state attendance laws, proper use of data codes, withdrawal codes, printing attendance reports, contacting parents, setting up meetings, and seeking legal intervention. Is there a user-friendly resource attendance manual that is ready for campus personnel who need technical support? Is there a campus plan with a checklist available for campus staff attendance responsibilities, time frames, resources required, and evidence of completion? These things need to be in place to identify truant students and provide early intervention quickly. This practical guidebook is written for attendance professionals new to truancy, tenure professionals, clerks, outreach workers, social workers, and others responsible for working with students and their excessive absences. It is a straightforward guide for preparing anyone to deal with truant students and their families. Part One discusses the causes of truancy, while Part Two provides detailed strategies for managing school attendance. It can be used as a presentation for training attendance professionals, staff members new to truancy, and specifically for those responsible for students in their district. In addition, it can be used as a refresher workshop annually. This guidebook is designed to will help reduce the dropout rate and increase attendance in schools.
