Case Study: Troup County School System reduces chronic absenteeism with SchoolStatus Attend

Troup County School System cuts chronic absenteeism by 25% with SchoolStatus

Troup County School System, a district in Georgia serving over 12,000 students, faced challenges with inconsistent attendance tracking and communication across its 18 schools. Manual processes consumed significant staff time, and a transient student population made it difficult to monitor chronic absenteeism effectively. The district sought a solution to create a unified approach and turned to SchoolStatus, specifically implementing the SchoolStatus Attend platform.

SchoolStatus Attend automated the district's attendance management, providing a central system for tracking and parent notifications. This saved administrative time and allowed staff to focus on targeted student interventions. As a result of using SchoolStatus, Troup County School System reduced chronic absenteeism by 25% over two years, from 16.6% to 12.2%, putting it on track to meet its attendance goals.
