Did you know? Chronic absenteeism is missing 10% or more of school days. That’s just 2 days a month! In GCPS, regular attendance is key to student success.
Chronic absenteeism is widely defined as missing 10% or more of the number of school days a student is enrolled. In Gwinnett County Public Schools (GCPS), where a school year consists of 180 days, 18 missed school days, whether excused or unexcused, would be considered chronically absent.
Learn more about excused absences, unexcused absences, and chronic absenteeism here:
