On this episode, we’re diving into a pressing issue affecting students and schools across the nation—chronic absenteeism. This is a developing problem that is grabbing policymakers’ attention in the states. When we see education policy problems arise, Florida is often leading with innovative solutions. Here’s what we know: A staggering 30.9% of Florida students were chronically absent last school year, a rate that has surged by more than 50% in just a few years.
To help us understand the scope of the problem—and what legislative solutions might be on the horizon—our host Ashley Mullins is joined by Rep. Dana Trabulsy, a longtime Florida education policy champion who is working to tackle this issue head-on.
