The Resilient Educator – Webinar Series

“Beyond Attendance: Lessons Learned and Strategies for the Year Ahead”

Across the country, schools continue to face significant challenges related to chronic absenteeism and student disengagement. For many educators, this year brought both progress and frustration—along with a growing realization that attendance is connected to much deeper issues involving student connection, belonging, motivation, and mental health.

As schools head into summer planning, this is an important opportunity to reflect on what we’ve learned and begin preparing for a stronger start next school year. In this webinar, experienced education leaders from WhyTry and RaaWee K12 will discuss:

  • Key attendance trends and challenges schools faced this year
  • What schools are doing that is making a real difference: Lessons learned from districts working to improve attendance
  • How student connection and school climate impact engagement
  • Practical strategies schools can begin planning for now to support stronger attendance next year
