4 ways parents can help reduce chronic absenteeism 1. Keep track of your child’s absences. Print a school calendar and mark the days missed. 2. Know the 10% chronic absenteeism threshold for your school. For example, OKCPS has 168 days on the student calendar, so students should aim to miss less than 16 days this year. 3. Always call your student’s school to report absences. 4. If you’re having ongoing issues getting your child to school, let your school or district know. They may have resources to help.
