Learning time is crucial for progress! Consistent practice is key, at home and in school. Prioritizing learning time is essential and we need strong family partnerships to succeed. Schools are currently facing high rates of absenteeism and families face barriers to attendance — both lead to the loss of valuable learning opportunities. How can we ensure that all communities build the necessary support systems for families to ensure learners achieve success? #Education #Learning #Progress

3 steps to end school absenteeism. We are already at 1in5 students missing school in the UK and the numbers don’t seem to be slowing down. What all these cases have in common is students feeling repeatedly let down. We can break that cycle when we work together and are prepared to make change which means something to our students.
📚 Closing the Gap on School Absenteeism 📚 In England, 1 in 5 pupils regularly miss school – a stark reminder of the challenges many young people face in traditional educational environments. At our Alternative Learning Hub, we’re actively addressing this issue with a hands-on, student-centred approach – and we’re already seeing incredible results. 🌟 In Term One, one of our students who had missed an entire year of school has achieved a remarkable 94% attendance rate. By identifying personal barriers, demonstrating care, and setting realistic expectations, our team is creating an inclusive learning space that makes education accessible again and builds a foundation of confidence, life skills, and independence.

ATTENDANCE MATTERS EVERY DAY! Officially, September is Attendance Awareness Month but make no mistake, every month is school attendance month. Our theme this year is, Be Present Be Powerful! It goes without saying, that attendance matters, and we need your help making sure students are at school all day, every day, all year long. Please strive to miss less than 10% of the entire school year. Be mindful that early checkouts matter and that all absences default to unexcused. Send excuses in within three days of the student returning and stay informed with the PowerSchool Parent Portal. Excused or not, when a student is out, they miss valuable instruction. When your student must miss school, know that you will get a courtesy text and follow-up email. Thank you in advance for your help and support. We cannot do this work without you! #baldwinproud

Since COVID-19, chronic absenteeism (missing more than 10% of year) has risen from 10% to 26% nationally and in Iowa. We understand that building a new facility is not the only solution to solving this issue. That’s why we’ve created robust systems to reduce chronic absenteeism. In fact, our overall chronic absenteeism rate is down from 30.22% and the end of the last school year to 18.96% today. This is a fantastic achievement that demonstrates our commitment to student success! How are we making such great strides? Attendance teams operating with high fidelity: Our attendance teams have been instrumental in identifying and addressing attendance concerns proactively. Increased awareness: Our families and community partners have become more aware of the importance of regular attendance and its impact on student success. Individual outreach: Our staff has gone above and beyond to reach out to families and provide support where needed. Proactive information: We've been proactive in providing families with information about attendance policies and resources. As we look towards the future, housing our 8-9 grade students in smaller learning communities at East and West will help us further focus on our junior high students, where absenteeism tends to be higher than other grades. #WaterlooProud #InfinitePossibilities #OneWaterloo #30Days30Facts
