Attendance and Test Performance

Tested-grade regular attendance is strongly associated with school-level proficiency.

Attendance and test performance chart
Math proficiency compared with the regular-attendance rate for the tested grades represented in each school point.

What this shows

Schools with higher regular-attendance rates in the grades represented by the assessment usually show higher proficiency.

What to examine

  • Whether the attendance slope changes by grade span.
  • Whether the pattern is consistent within specific locales or districts.
  • How this relationship compares with income and adult-education views under matching filters.
Interpretation caution: Attendance is both a condition and a proxy. It may reflect family circumstances, school systems, and local conditions at the same time.
