PleaseEight schools had attendance rates of under 75% each day last week, according to data obtained by WLRN through a public records request.
The district’s overall average attendance last week was about 89%, more than 5 percentage points lower than the first week of school in April 2019, when schools were operating normally. The overall attendance rate jumped to 91.3% on Monday of this week, which administrators described in a news release as"a high rate of student attendance, despite this being the launch of an unprecedented remote teaching and learning model."
