Story Behind the Curve

An interesting, perhaps more telling data point regarding attendance is the chronic absenteeism rate (the % of students who miss 10% or more of the enrolled days). For 2023 (which reports data from SY2021-2022 per Dan Li of the Iowa Department of Education):

  • Ames - 31.2% of "all students" were chronically absent
  • Ballard - 16.2% were chronically absent
  • Collins-Maxwell - 27.6% were chronically absent
  • Colo-NESCO - 24.1% were chronically absent
  • Gilbert - 15.4% were chronically absent
  • Nevada - 10.4% were chronically absent
  • Roland-Story - 14.8% were chronically absent

The overall Story county average, then, was 22.0% or 2,541 students chronically absent (out of 11,535 total students).
