Why Attendance Matters More Than Ever

Every day a student misses school, they miss more than just lessons — they miss opportunities to connect, learn, and grow. Consistent attendance is one of the strongest predictors of student success, yet many families face real barriers that make it hard to get to school every day.

At Urban Home2School Network, we believe that improving attendance starts at home — with relationships, trust, and support. Through our Home Visit Outreach and Attendance Coaching Programs, we help families identify what’s standing in the way and work together with schools and community partners to find solutions.

Whether it’s access to transportation, mental health supports, or simply a listening ear, our mission is to make sure no child is left behind because of preventable barriers.

When families, schools, and communities work as one, attendance improves — and so does every student’s future.
