Fight Absenteeism & Stay Compliant with SchoolStatus Attend
Illinois school districts are navigating complex challenges, including the new requirement for establishing an absenteeism policy that includes an in-person or physical letter component.
Enter SchoolStatus: We can help you reduce chronic absenteeism and meet the requirements of 1105 ILCS 5/26-7 with tools that help you spot at-risk students, send positive reinforcement mailings, and automate attendance intervention letters.
Attendance Tracking, Insights, and Automated Interventions
Stay Compliant
The new Illinois School Code emphasizes improving student attendance and reducing chronic absenteeism. SchoolStatus Attend supports these goals by identifying at-risk students, automating outreach to families, and equipping districts with actionable data to drive intervention strategies.
Identify At-Risk Students
Easy-to-use, customizable dashboards help you spot trends for tardiness and truancy so you can take action before absenteeism becomes chronic. After first contact, 54% of students return to school.
Automate Outreach to Families
Reduce your staff’s time spent on attendance by up to 75% by automatically sending school-branded mail to families—in their home language—to notify them of an absenteeism issue, educate them about the importance of attendance, and celebrate their student’s successes.
Empower Data-Driven Decisions
Integrate with your SIS to see a holistic view of attendance by student, class, school, or district. SchoolStatus Attend measures missed learning time—not just full days missed—by the class, teacher, student, or school for the full picture.
