A study by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) found that 72% of public schools over the past year reported higher rates of chronic absenteeism, defined as a student who misses at least 15 school days a year. This issue does not appear to be disproportionately affecting low-income or urban schools, as the NCES results were consistent across socio-economic demographics. Schools with lower rates of student poverty reported a 73% increase in chronic absenteeism, and schools in rural areas experienced a 71% increase (Daily Wire). Insider: Additionally, problems that stemmed from teachers being absent more often were exacerbated by the fact that 77 percent of public schools also reported that finding substitute teachers has become more difficult during the pandemic. Compared to the 2020–21 school year, 61 percent of public schools reported that finding substitute teachers is difficult (Insider). |
