Chronic absenteeism continues to be a significant problem after the pandemic, as 20.7% of Georgia students missed 10% or more school days in 2024, the Georgia Department of Education reported. In response, GaDOE began a statewide campaign that introduced a real-time attendance dashboard, public outreach, and enhanced assistance for districts with high absentee rates to improve daily attendance.
In 2025, the state legislature amended school attendance laws to prohibit expulsion solely due to absenteeism. The changes include new reporting rules and coordinate with options enabling students to earn diplomas through alternative routes.
As of 2026, Georgia’s average student-to-teacher ratio stood at approximately 14:1, which is lower than the national average of 15:1.
