“Children in the U.S. are making their way back to school, with some already a week or two into the academic year. There’s excitement in the air, but schools have some stubborn challenges to address. Among them is absenteeism. Student attendance rates have tanked since the pandemic. An AP analysis of data from 40 states and D.C. shows absenteeism got worse in each state except Arkansas from 2018-2022. Schools are working on new programs to encourage kids to come to school and tell families how much they’ve missed.”

“Schools are also working to address mental health and keep kids off their phones. Data shows 77% of U.S. schools prohibit phones for non-academic use. States continue to roll out bans as schools encourage students to sign up for sports, clubs and other extracurriculars.”

8. SOUNDBITE (English) Cheyanne Mumphrey, The Associated Press:
“It’s also an election year, and schools are operating under increasing political tension. They are wrestling with how to provide welcoming environments for LGBTQ+ students and students of diverse racial backgrounds, all while trying to facilitate civil political discourse. On top of all of this, extra federal money that supported school meals, additional tutoring and some after-school care programs has ended. And of course there is no shortage of news on artificial intelligence, its regulation and integration into the classroom. So, with this new school year, we encourage you to tune into coverage by The Associated Press.”
