Case Study: Amador County Unified School District reduces chronic absenteeism by 15% with SchoolStatus Attend

Amador County Unified School District reduces chronic absenteeism by 15% with SchoolStatus

Amador County Unified School District, a unique "single single" district in California, faced the challenge of high chronic absenteeism across its geographically diverse schools. To build stronger family connections and improve student attendance, the district partnered with vendor SchoolStatus to implement its Attend product for automated and positive digital outreach.

Using SchoolStatus Attend, the district automated attendance interventions and launched positive communication campaigns. This solution led to a 15% reduction in chronic absenteeism and an average of 1.5 fewer absences per student in a single year. The measurable impact also included a higher average daily attendance rate and a significant 24% reduction in missed days following principal conferences, all of which helped protect district funding. SchoolStatus provided the tools to make these data-driven and empathetic improvements possible.
