Chronic absenteeism continues to challenge Georgia schools since the pandemic, with 20.7% of students missing 10% or more days in 2024, according to the Georgia Department of Education. To combat this, GaDOE has implemented a statewide effort that includes a real-time attendance dashboard, public awareness campaigns, and targeted assistance for at-risk districts to improve attendance rates.
In 2025, Georgia legislators approved new attendance law updates banning expulsions solely for absenteeism, with expanded reporting requirements and strengthened pathways for students to earn diplomas using alternative methods.
By 2026, Georgia’s average student-to-teacher ratio was about 14:1, compared to the nationwide average of 15:1.
