Chronic absenteeism continues to challenge Georgia schools in the post-pandemic period, as 20.7% of students missed 10% or more days in 2024, the Georgia Department of Education reports. To address this, GaDOE introduced a statewide strategy featuring a real-time attendance dashboard, a public awareness initiative, and focused support for high-need districts to improve daily attendance rates.
In 2025, state lawmakers passed legislation updating attendance laws to prohibit expulsion solely for absenteeism. The changes also introduce new reporting requirements and are coordinated with alternative diploma pathways.
As of 2026, Georgia maintained an average student-to-teacher ratio of about 14:1, which is more favorable than the national average of 15:1.
