CT leads with actionable data in order to provide timely interventions and supports. @EducateCT thanks our districts, and together with schools, families, and community partners we will continue to deploy effective strategies to keep students in school, and engaged in learning.

We were so glad you could make it @CharleneRTedu! Congratulations @EducateCT - the first state in the U.S. to publicly release #chronicabsence data for the 2024-25 SY! And CT saw a steady decline over the past 3 years 💫

Through the Commissioner’s Roundtable, we bring authentic voices into policy making, ensuring we bridge gaps, break down barriers, and give every student access to ‘A Universe of Opportunities.’

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the Commissioner's Roundtable for Family and Community Engagement in Education! It was an insightful discussion on key educational issues, including the Parents Bill of Rights, personal technology in schools, and youth mental health.

Together, we’re enhancing school-family-community partnerships to ensure every student’s success.

A continued area of focus for @EducateCT this school year:

Working with schools, families and community partners to ensure that students are physically present in the classroom each day and actively engaged in learning.
