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).
