Addressing Chronic Absenteeism Through Inclusive and Equitable Practices for All

December 6, 2023, 9 a.m. - 12 p.m.

This AA will empower school leaders with knowledge of the historical context & research of systemic barriers/issues that have infiltrated our educational system, fragmented our school communities, & have widened the chronic absenteeism gap. Additionally, school leaders will acquire solution-based strategies for decreasing chronic absenteeism by eliminating systemic obstacles/barriers within their educational environments, which are often directly connected to culture/climate transformations. These essential tools should transform school leaders’ daily practices & empower them to create inclusive educational environments that will produce equitable outcomes, decrease chronic absenteeism, & promote community healing.
