IT leaders and school administrators increasingly are tapping into specialized AI solutions that analyze data to monitor attendance and flag issues that may be contributing to absenteeism so that school staff can work toward resolutions.
“Chronic absenteeism is often framed as an attendance tracking issue, but in practice, it’s usually an early warning issue,” says Amy Bennett, chief of staff at 光速系统, which offers comprehensive attendance and engagement tracking through Lightspeed Classroom. “Technology — including AI — can help schools identify the underlying causes of absenteeism before students accumulate significant missed days.”
