Buhler USD 313 working to keep kids in class
HUTCHINSON, Kan. — Chronic absenteeism is an issue for every school district, but Buhler USD 313 is putting a focus on reducing that number this year. "Chronic absenteeism, let's define what that means, it means missing 10% or more of your school days," said Buhler USD 313 Superintendent Cindy Couchman. "If we're in school roughly 170-ish days, that means missing 17 or more days of school, so chronically absent is quite a bit. Pre-COVID, Buhler schools ran around 8%, that's pretty low. Since COVID, the year after COVID, 2021-22, we jumped to 32%. Then that was when we had a lot of people home sick, we understand that. That's a little bit of an anomaly, but the following year was around 22%. We really made a considerate effort last year to get it down, and we're working on it again this year. Last year it was 11.8% for Buhler schools. Our goal is to get that back below 10%. And the state average is almost 20%."
