Attendance Matters
WATCH and SHARE: Actor and SFUSD alumnus Benjamin Bratt talks about the importance of showing up to school.
Every day counts for learning, and for building the relationships with teachers and friends that support long-term academic progress. Research shows that measurements of academic success–reading and math attainment, test scores, college enrollment rates–go up when students are in school on a regular basis.
Learn simple ways to help your student build good attendance habits this school year–and how SFUSD and the staff at your school are ready to provide support and connect you with resources.
SFUSD would like to thank Attendance Works for sharing research, resources and best practices.
