Get 2 School: Resources in Ohio to reduce chronic absenteeism

Student success starts with school attendance.

The Get 2 School Network is committed to providing Ohio’s educators, students, parents, families and caregivers with access to quality tools and strategic counsel aimed at elevating attendance and putting an end to chronic absenteeism.

When children are absent from school they miss important learning opportunities, which can be difficult, or even impossible, to make up. The mission of the Get 2 School Network is to prioritize attendance by connecting its families and schools to resources aimed at getting every child to school every school day. Check out these resources made for Ohio through the generous work of The Cleveland Browns Foundation, Ohio Department of Education and Workforce and Proving Ground.

The Get 2 School Network unites partners and collaborators to leverage individual strengths-such as:

  • deploying attendance-focused campaigns,
  • sharpening school improvement plans,
  • launching specific attendance strategies, and
  • evaluating the impact of those strategies-to better support Ohio’s schools and districts through collective impact.
