Paperback. Condition: New. A call for community-based approaches to reducing the barriers that prevent regular attendance in K-12 schools In Rethinking Chronic Absenteeism, Sarah Winchell Lenhoff and Jeremy Singer reframe chronic absenteeism as a symptom of a complex set of factors affecting the student, family, and community rather than simply an accountability metric for educators, schools, or districts. Lenhoff and Singer identify chronic absenteeism-often defined as missing 10 percent or more of instructional days-as an issue of social and economic inequality as much as an educational one, and they explore the role of K-12 schools and other organizations in solving this growing problem. The book is based on research conducted over eight years as part of a research-practice partnership with urban school systems in Detroit. Their results show the challenges of relying on school-based approaches to improve attendance, particularly in high absenteeism contexts where the causes of absenteeism are due to inequalities that are outside the scope of schools or districts to address. Lenhoff and Singer caution that school-based measures like punishments, parent fines, and even rewards can reinforce the social inequality that makes accessing school difficult. They stress that schools and districts should address factors within their purview: change the role of attendance-focused staff to act as navigators to help families remove barriers, improve school-home communication, help families access resources, and focus on building and sustaining positive relationships with students and families. The book also calls for broader societal change with recommendations for how policymakers, district and school leaders, and community partners can together adopt a more ecological approach to attendance.…

Paperback. Condition: New. This book places a focus on educational ecosystems - that is, understanding the complex nature of educational experiences and promoting a coordinated set of policy and practice solutions to address interrelated problems that manifest in school and student outcomes.Educational policy and politics have been dominated by school improvement initiatives that locate educational problems and solutions in schools themselves, rather than in the systemic and structural roots of those problems: segregation, poverty, and histories of compounding inequality. Youth outcomes that we associate with schools (e.g., achievement, attendance, graduation) are the consequences of systemic structural and environmental factors that interact with the lived experiences of students in their communities and schools. This insightful volume provides examples of how to understand and analyse educational issues ecologically and evidence on the opportunities and challenges with forging cross-sector partnerships to address educational issues ecologically.Thinking Ecologically in Educational Policy and Research will be a key resource for practitioners and researchers of education leadership and policy, educational administration, educational research, educational studies and sociology. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Peabody Journal of Education.…
