Chronic absenteeism continues to challenge Georgia schools following the pandemic, with 20.7% of students missing 10% or more school days in 2024, the Georgia Department of Education reported. To address this issue, GaDOE implemented a statewide initiative including a real-time attendance dashboard, a public awareness campaign, and targeted assistance for districts with the highest needs to encourage consistent attendance.
In 2025, state lawmakers in Georgia approved updates to school attendance laws prohibiting expulsion based solely on absenteeism. The law also introduces new reporting obligations and supports alternative pathways for students to earn diplomas.
As of 2026, Georgia’s average student-to-teacher ratio was about 14:1, compared to the national average of 15:1.
