[quote=Anonymous]The mentions of shocking amounts of chronic student absenteeism (defined as children absent 10% or more of the time) sent me into a rabbit hole. I looked up the numbers at various schools via https://schoolquality.virginia.gov/, and found some strange trends. The 2018-2019 school year absenteeism numbers are significantly lower than the 2022-2023 numbers measuring chronic absenteeism. Examples: Jamestown - 2.29% in 2019, 3.65% in 2023 Wakefield - 18.46% in 2019, 27.63% in 2023 Drew - 6.09% in 2019, 23.66% in 2023 Oakridge - 8.38% in 2019, 12.8% in 2023 The 2021-2022 numbers, which you would have expected to be higher than pre-pandemic, due to quarantine rules, weren't much higher than 2018-2019. Was there a change in methodology? Why are the numbers so different? [/quote]
