The Importance of Attendance Students are more likely to succeed in academics if they attend school consistently. Students not in class have fewer opportunities to learn material. Absences have an impact on the teacher’s ability to move forward with the class. Make-up work does not take the place of teacher instruction, discussions, and hands-on opportunities. Research suggests a direct correlation between drop out rates and poor attendance beginning in kindergarten.
