Attendance Insights

Highlighted below are some insights  taken from NYCPS attendance data that will help us as we move forward working to improve school attendance.  

01

​2023-24 attendance  reached pre-pandemic percentage; we look to continue to increase overall attendance in 2024-2025

​

Restoring Pre- Pandemic Attendance Percentage

02

Decreased Chronic Absenteeism

Data shows a decrease of 5%  in the total percentage of chronicically absent students in the past year. Our school's  chronically absent student percentage came in lower than city, borough, and district for percentage of chronically absent students. 

​

 

03

Rising 2nd grade-
Hybrid Learning Cohort 

In 2023-2024, Grade 1  had the lowest YTD attendance as  compared to other grades. After inquiring with administration, they confirmed this cohort has mostly been together since entering P.S. 297 in Pre- Kindergarten. These students entered school during the hybrid learning year in NYCPS.

Recommendation: Assess needs of each family around attendance.  Work with parents and students as needed to  establish new mindset around the importance of daily attendance.
