Chronic Absenteeism Drives Down Student Achievement and High School Graduation Rates…Research shows that students who miss at least 20 days per year, had lower grades and were more likely to drop out. Yet researchers found that these effects are reversible. This is why under ESSA it is increasingly becoming an accountability indicator that will be reported on school, district, and state report cards.
