Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 1,890. Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 597. Abstract: Most school districts have policies in place to systematically address student absenteeism, which remains a considerable problem across grade levels in many parts of the country. Typical attendance practices include parent notification by letters, phone calls, parent meetings, home visitation, and, for students with significant numbers of absences, referrals to truancy programs and family courts. Such practices can be costly. Text messaging interventions are becoming increasingly popular—in fields such as public health and prevention—due to their low cost, scalability, and evidence of impact. School districts have increasing capacity to use technology to implement messaging interventions. Thus, an SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: E:\FR\FM\21JNN1.SGM 21JNN1
