Chronic absenteeism continues to challenge Georgia schools after the pandemic, with 20.7% of students missing at least 10% of school days in 2024, according to the Georgia Department of Education. GaDOE has responded with statewide actions including a real-time attendance dashboard, a public awareness campaign, and targeted support in high-need districts to encourage consistent attendance.
In 2025, Georgia lawmakers enacted new legislation barring expulsion only for absenteeism, introducing new reporting requirements and supporting programs that help students access alternative diploma paths.
By 2026, Georgia posted an average student-to-teacher ratio of about 14:1, compared to the national average of 15:1.
