Student Tracker
Truancy is a complex social issue, not only for school districts, but for the community as well. Research has shown that truancy is the single greatest contributing factor to dropping out of school among teenagers. The iSIMS Student Tracker is a unique solution designed to help K-12 School Districts focus on truancy reduction and drop out recovery. The iSIMS Student Tracker provides for the centralization and networking needed for an effective approach to truancy reduction and drop out recovery by providing a technological broad based truancy solution that is district-wide.
By having a broad based district solution, a Sacramental School District is reporting that it has reduced the average days for transferred students from 36.3 days to 9.3 days. The total number of instructional days lost due to transferring students has dropped by 30% resulting in significant gains in both student instructional days and ADA funding.
With Student Tracker information, you can statistically measure the effectiveness of your tracking practices and introduce improvements for a more successful retention of students in your district.
