Chronic absenteeism continues to be a challenge in Georgia schools, with 20.7% of students missing at least 10% of school days in 2024, the Georgia Department of Education reported. In response, GaDOE has initiated a statewide effort that features a real-time attendance dashboard, a public awareness push, and targeted support for districts with high needs to improve attendance rates.
In 2025, Georgia legislators approved a law revising school attendance requirements so that students cannot be expelled solely for absenteeism. The measure also introduces new reporting guidelines and aligns with alternative diploma pathways for students.
As of 2026, the average student-to-teacher ratio in Georgia stood at about 14:1, which is lower than the national average of 15:1.
