Chronic absenteeism — 2024-25

Share of students missing 10% or more of expected attendance — the leading indicator that often precedes the demand decline shown above. Families disengaging tend to raise absenteeism first, then formally leave. Basis: total enrollment.

Kids show up: 5% are chronically absent versus about 21% statewide — engagement most schools would envy.

Enrollment stability & demand — 2024-25
