A task force made up of school district representatives, advocacy groups and even juvenile court staff released recommendations on how the state of Ohio can improve student attendance.
The following article was originally published in the Ohio Capital Journal and published on News5Cleveland.com under a content-sharing agreement.
The Ohio Department of Education and Workforce says losing 10% or more school hours “can lead to younger students struggling with learning to read by third grade, decreased achievement in middle school and difficulty graduating high school.” But the group also said school districts are still experiencing “challenges” in implementing the law, because of the focus on “compliance vs. prevention” and the lack of enforcement districts feel they have since truancy was decriminalized under the law.
Delaware City Schools saw an 8.6% decrease in chronic absence, from 25.9% in 2021-22 to 17.3% in 2022-23 with the help of staff outreach, an assessment center available outside of school hours and a “good relationship with juvenile court liaisons.”
