Chronic absenteeism remains widespread in Georgia schools after the pandemic, with 20.7% of students missing at least 10% of school days in 2024, according to the Georgia Department of Education. To address this, GaDOE started a statewide effort that includes a real-time attendance dashboard, public awareness initiatives, and targeted support for districts with especially high need to improve daily attendance rates.
In 2025, state lawmakers updated school attendance laws to prohibit expulsion based purely on absenteeism. The new legislation also imposes updated reporting and supports programs for students seeking alternate pathways to a diploma.
Statewide, Georgia maintained an average student-to-teacher ratio near 14:1 as of 2026, outperforming the national average of 15:1.
