The RAND Corporation estimated that approximately 22% of K-12 students were chronically absent in the 2024-2025 school year.

Hey, look on the bright side. It was 28% three years earlier : )

It case anybody is interested, the metric is "absent at least 10% of school days for all causes combined", which presumably ranges from skipping school, through holding down a job, to leukaemia. But it's consistent.
