Absenteeism Calculation Definitions:
- Chronically Absent – The percentage of all subgroup students absent 10% or more of their enrollment. For example, if a student is enrolled for 180 days and accumulates 18 absences, they are deemed chronically absent.
- Average Daily Attendance Rate – The total number of days students are present divided by the total number of days enrolled for all students in a subgroup. If a subset of students had 975 days present and 1,000 days enrolled, the Average Daily Attendance Rate would be 97.5%.
- Average Daily Absenteeism Rate – The total number of days students are absent divided by the total number of days enrolled for all students in a subgroup. It is the inverse of the Average Daily Attendance Rate. Instead of 975 days present, it uses 25 days absent out of 1,000 days enrolled; therefore, the Average Daily Absenteeism Rate would be 2.5%.
Data Sources
The attendance data uses the same raw data as the College and Career Readiness Performance Index (CCRPI), which is based on the Student Record data collection.
Dashboard Instructions
Statewide Overview – Use the Absenteeism Calculation dropdown to change the metric being displayed in the visuals. Use the Subgroup, School Year, and System dropdowns to change the students underlying the calculation. Select a system from the map to display its data alongside the state’s data.
Subgroup Heatmap – Use the Absenteeism Calculation dropdown to change the metric being displayed in the visuals. Use the System and School dropdowns to drill down to a specific system or school.
Subgroup Comparison – The dropdowns on this page are similar to those on the other two pages, but the Subgroup Comparison page groups students based on their individual Average Daily Absenteeism Rate. The orange bar matches the chronically absent percentages from the other pages.
