When students miss school, they are more likely to fail in school – that includes poor grades, dropping out or even suspension. Students are still not attending school as much as they did before the pandemic. The solution is certainly not one size fits all. Retention specialists that work with school-family teams of teachers, counselors, principals and parents are key.
Learn4Life takes a three-pronged approach: Determine the root causes of absenteeism. Remove the obstacles to coming to school every day. And make school relevant, engaging and meaningful to each individual student.
