Attendance Intervention Toolkit

$12.99Price

Identify the Barrier. Choose the Support. Monitor What Works.

Attendance problems rarely have a single cause. A student may be struggling with routines, transportation, academics, peer relationships, school connection, motivation, stress, family circumstances, or several barriers at once.

The Attendance Intervention Toolkit gives K–12 school professionals a practical system for figuring out what is getting in the way—and deciding what to do next.

Instead of simply asking, “How do we get this student to school?” this toolkit helps you ask: What is making attendance difficult, what does the student say they need, and what support can we realistically put in place?

A Clear 5-Step Intervention Path

IDENTIFY → UNDERSTAND → PLAN → MONITOR → REVIEW

The toolkit walks you from the initial attendance concern through student voice, barrier identification, intervention matching, progress monitoring, and review—so you are not left guessing what to do next.

Why This Toolkit Is Different

  • Barrier-focused: looks beyond the attendance percentage to what may actually be driving the concern.

  • Student-centered: builds student voice, strengths, and connection into the intervention process.

  • Practical: designed for real school workflows, not just theory.

  • MTSS-friendly: supports targeted intervention, progress monitoring, and team decision-making.

  • K–12 ready: includes separate approaches for elementary and secondary students.

  • Implementation-aware: helps you monitor not only whether attendance improves, but whether the intervention was actually carried out consistently.
