Attendance Rate RechnerFormel

## How Attendance Rate is Calculated

Attendance rate measures the proportion of scheduled days a student was present.

### Formula

**Attendance Rate = Days Present / Total School Days x 100**

### Chronic Absenteeism

A student is considered chronically absent when their attendance drops below 90%, meaning they miss 10% or more of school days. Research consistently shows chronic absenteeism is one of the strongest predictors of academic failure.

Lösungsbeispiel

90 school days, student was present for 82, with 5 excused absences.

  1. Attendance rate: 82 / 90 x 100 = 91.1%
  2. Total absences: 90 - 82 = 8
  3. Unexcused: 8 - 5 = 3
  4. Below 90%? No (91.1% >= 90%)
