School absenteeism poses a significant challenge in Canada, prompting various stakeholders to seek effective solutions. The Canadian School Attendance Partnership has dedicated years to researching this issue.
The focus of their current investigation is the potential impact of attendance-based grading systems on student attendance rates. This approach has garnered attention from families and community organizations concerned about absenteeism.
As the study unfolds, it remains to be seen whether implementing such grading practices will yield positive results in reducing absenteeism among students.
