Presentations From Monthly Meetings of NCPIE Members

January 2008
At the January NCPIE meeting, Hedy Chang, an independent consultant, shared the early findings of an applied research project on chronic early absence. Supported by the Annie E Casey Foundation, this project began with an anecdote-informed premise that chronic early absence was an important and overlooked issue. The work to date suggests that chronic early absence may matter more than originally suspected given preliminary results showing an impact on academic performance and the potential to affect nearly a quarter of the entire K-3 student population in an urban school district. The complete newsletter is attached.
