Chronic absenteeism continues to challenge Georgia schools after the pandemic, with 20.7% of students missing at least 10% of school days in 2024, according to the Georgia Department of Education. To address attendance, GaDOE introduced a statewide initiative that includes real-time attendance dashboards, a public campaign, and targeted support in high-need districts.
In 2025, Georgia lawmakers approved updates to the state’s attendance laws to prohibit expulsion solely for absenteeism. The changes introduce new reporting requirements and connect with programs offering alternative diploma routes for students.
