Kindergarteners in the U.S. are missing a lot of school. In K-12 across the country, an alarming number of children have been chronically absent — defined as missing at least 10% of the school year, usually about 18 days. It’s an old problem that COVID made much, much worse. By one count, more than 1 in 4 students in the U.S. was chronically absent during the 2022-23 school year.

It shares 3 powerful lessons for how schools can work with parents to proactively prevent absenteeism.
