Chronic absenteeism remains one of the most pressing challenges facing schools today. While attendance data matters, improving attendance requires more than tracking metrics. It requires examining the daily experience students have inside the school day.

In this edWeb podcast, leaders from school and district contexts discuss how adult consistency, shared routines, and operational decisions influence student experience and attendance. The conversation focuses on what leaders can change within existing systems to create stronger conditions for belonging.

The panelists share lessons learned from aligning staff practices, addressing friction points in transitions and shared spaces, and making attendance strategies visible to boards and communities. Listeners leave with practical insight into strengthening schoolwide systems that support improved attendance outcomes.

This edWeb podcast is of interest to elementary through middle school district and school leaders.
