Source: New York State Education Department, school report card data (2023-24 and 2024-25). The state counts students in grades 1 to 12 enrolled at least 10 days who attended at least once, and calls them chronically absent if they missed 10 percent or more of their enrolled days. Charter and district comparisons use the same state method and leave out school-years that look like reporting errors. District school pages on this site use the city’s own data, which also counts Pre-K and kindergarten. All NYC charter schools
