Join us to hear from AI visionaries and education leaders on building future-ready schools.
Panorama Education’s Data Science and Applied Research Team conducted an extensive study analyzing attendance data from over 7,000 schools and 11 million student records. The study revealed that factors within a school’s control—such as safety, climate, and student engagement—can influence a student’s likelihood of chronic absenteeism by up to 22%.
Panorama’s Chronic Absenteeism Survey Topics and Check-Ins Questions are based on these findings, providing tools to help you understand and address absenteeism in your school or district.
Panorama offers two tools to gather feedback from students about chronic absenteeism:
Survey translations are available in several languages, and our team can collaborate with your school or district to support additional translation needs. If you're a school or district leader interested in advanced data analysis and survey reporting, you can learn more about our products here.
Panorama’s Playbook comes with nearly 900 research-based strategies, including attendance interventions and ideas for improving areas tied to chronic absenteeism like engagement and climate.
Panorama automatically recommends age-appropriate activities and interventions based on students’ survey responses.
We developed the Panorama Chronic Absenteeism Survey as part of survey development work led by Dr. Hunter Gehlbach, Professor and Vice Dean at the Johns Hopkins School of Education and Senior Research Advisor at Panorama Education. Dr. Gehlbach is a leading survey methodologist, education researcher, and former high school social studies teacher.
The research team followed a rigorous survey development process involving cognitive interviews with students, an extensive review of survey literature, feedback from experts nationwide, and multiple rounds of piloting and refinement.
