Regular school attendance is one of the strongest predictors of student success. Children who attend consistently grow socially, physically, and academically alongside their classmates — and the habits they build now carry forward into college, careers, and life.
Missing just 10% of school days (about 18 days a year, or two days a month) can put a student behind. Research links chronic absenteeism to lower academic outcomes, weaker peer relationships, and reduced graduation rates.
