Listen "Looking at the Pull Factors of School"
Episode Synopsis
Join us as we explore the topic of school attendance through a student’s lens. Hear directly from students within our district who describe what factors drive them to show up daily, as we consider their responses in the larger context of increased absenteeism in public education. As always, we would love to hear your feedback on the questions we pose or on the podcast in general. One way to share your thoughts is by filling out this Google Form. Thanks for listening.
