This six-session course (18 hours) will help anyone tasked with tackling absenteeism problems—administrators, counselors, attendance clerks, etc. Learn how to boost whole school attendance with universal approaches and intervene with students who are chronically absent.

For students to be successful in school, they need to be in school.

Learn how to build a culture of attendance in your school as well as effective interventions for individual students who are chronically absent.
