The Virginia Department of Education (VDOE) recently completed a Request for Proposal for an attendance solution that divisions across the state could count on for better attendance, and we were honored to be named the official VDOE-approved solution. What does this opportunity mean for your division? We’ve compiled some key points below as you consider bringing on a partner in improving attendance for the 25-26 school year. 

Dedicated to improving student attendance and transforming student outcomes, we help educators in over 60 districts nationwide improve attendance through:  

  • Data Reporting & Collaboration Tools: Uncover key attendance insights at the district, school, and student levels; surface patterns & trends; streamline family outreach; track effectiveness of efforts. Take a quick tour here
  • Evidence-Based Foundational Attendance Campaigns: Leverage various communication campaigns & templates, including our foundational evidence-based chronic absenteeism nudge intervention and restorative truancy notices.
  • Individualized Family Support:  Kick barriers to the curb and gain insights into family needs with the 24/7 Family Support Bot and the multilingual Family Support Team connecting families to barrier-specific district or community resources. 
  • Expert Training for High Impact Action: Build capacity & equip teams to deliver effective attendance improvement strategies throughout the school year.
