Attendance indicators for students in Massachusetts public schools from the 2018 school year onward. Data is published by the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education and includes metrics like chronic absenteeism rates. The dataset is updated annually, with the latest metadata from March 2026.
Requires careful handling of STU_GRP definitions due to changes in economic disadvantage metrics over time (2015-2021 vs. post-2022). Data is also available on the DESE Profiles site, which may be the primary source.
