Chronic absenteeism has continued to challenge Georgia’s schools since the pandemic, with 20.7% of students missing at least 10% of days in 2024, the Georgia Department of Education said. The GaDOE responded by launching a statewide attendance initiative that offers real-time data, awareness efforts, and targeted district supports to improve student attendance.

Legislation enacted in 2025 by Georgia lawmakers changed attendance laws to prohibit schools from expelling students solely due to absenteeism. The bill also introduced new reporting rules and coordinates with programs that let students earn diplomas through alternative routes.

By 2026, Georgia’s average student-to-teacher ratio had reached about 14:1, which is below the national average of 15:1.
