Students just aren't showing up in many school districts, writes Steven Hayward on Powerline. Chronic absenteeism -- missing 10 percent or more of school days -- is way up.

"We know that the COVID school shutdowns were a disaster for children and young adults, and that low-income and minorities were hardest hit, as always," he writes. Chronic absenteeism doubled in San Francisco's public schools: 64 percent of blacks and 47 percent of Hispanics were chronic truants in 2021-22.

If you look at the chart, it shows that Asian and white are the groups most likely to be present though white students are absent twice the rate of Asians... Hmmmmm...
