Why Attendance Matters in Denver Public Schools
At DPS, it is our collective responsibility as leaders, educators, families, and community members to ensure that our students not only succeed, but thrive. One critical component of ensuring our students’ success is identifying and removing barriers that keep our students from coming to school each day. When students are not at school, they not only miss out on valuable learning opportunities for the time they were absent, but they can experience long-term impacts that hinder their development in reading by third grade, achieving in middle school and graduating from high school.
One student’s absence also affects their peers and teacher as classroom instruction includes small group learning activities. For each absent student, teachers need to adjust plans, gather materials for make-up work, and follow up to get each student caught up. Make-up work does not replace the in-person learning activities that happen daily, and students miss out on important social-emotional development that occurs throughout the school.
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the percentage of chronically absent students in DPS skyrocketed to 42.55% during the 2021-22 school year. Since the pandemic, attendance rates have continued to improve, and our goal is to get the number of chronically absent students back to pre-pandemic levels. If you have any questions about your child's absences, please contact their school.
