[quote=Anonymous]Weirdly I just looked at this same numbers! You mention a few schools but I think all APS schools have higher rates since the pandemic. No idea why the pandemic would change that. I just googled it and it is a nation-wide phenomenon. This article says that some reasons are, poor student mental health, staffing shortages, transportation issues, and housing instability. But also the pandemic fractured relationships between schools and parents, and parents got used to the idea that school doesn't have to be in-person from 9-3 every day. Interesting stuff. https://projects.apnews.com/features/2023/missing-students-chronic-absenteeism/index.html[/quote]
