Summer Learning Institute 2026

Chronic absenteeism is widely recognized, but many districts struggle to translate data into effective action. In this interactive session, participants will explore a small set of high-impact, research-backed practices that have helped districts improve attendance without adding unsustainable demands on staff. Through a guided discussion of a real-world attendance scenario, attendees will examine how to identify early warning signs, engage families supportively, and align efforts across teams. Participants will leave with 1–2 concrete next steps they can take back to their district.
