Chronic absenteeism has remained a key concern in Georgia schools after the pandemic, with 20.7% of students missing at least 10% of school days in 2024, data from the Georgia Department of Education show. The agency responded by launching a statewide effort that includes an attendance dashboard, public awareness efforts, and targeted support to improve daily attendance in high-need districts.

In 2025, state lawmakers approved legislation updating school attendance rules to prohibit expulsion solely for absenteeism. The law also requires additional reporting and supports alternative graduation pathways.

By 2026, Georgia’s average student-to-teacher ratio was about 14:1, lower than the national average of 15:1.
