Conclusion & Next Steps
The data story is a work-in-progress. As missing data points become available, the data story will more accurately illustrate what factors are important influences on middle school attendance, and where strategies should focus to improve outcomes.
Another important step in the data story is the continuing effort to gain access to individual student-level data, which will further our knowledge of attendance-related factors.
The final part of the data story of attendance will focus on student attendance in high school, with a specific focus at William B. Cooley, Sr. High School and Providence Academy of International Studies (PAIS).
