The purpose of Chronic Absence (CA) reports is to inform district leaders at a given point in time (end of the week or month) the number and percent of their presently enrolled students that are chronically absent (attendance rate of 90% or less). This enables principals to monitor their school’s progress in fighting student absenteeism as well as progress for each student with an attendance problem on a weekly basis and enact interventions as needed. Chronic Absence reporting has become integral to OUSD efforts to boost attendance at all grade levels.
