National Attendance & Engagement Meta Network

An advanced collaborative network focused on an explicit problem of practice—chronic absenteeism—that brings together lead learners, including educators, administrators, researchers, and other practitioners, from various levels of practice (state, district, county education offices, NSIs).

Teams collaborate to share evidence-based practices that demonstrate promise and openly share relevant data to support learning and improvement.

Two people are engaged in conversation at an indoor event. The woman, holding papers and sporting glasses and a green dress over a black top, discusses with the bearded man in a blue shirt about utilizing SEO strategies. Other attendees from the META Network are blurred in the background.

NETWORK VISION STATEMENTS
