The Big Lift invests in efforts to help families understand the importance of attendance in preschool and early elementary school and encourages them to make consistent attendance a high priority and ongoing habit. We partner with EveryDay Labs (formerly InClass Today) to deliver the most effective messages to families to reduce absenteeism.
Big Lift’s implementation of EveryDay Labs’ Absence Reports reduces absenteeism; further, better attendance is associated with improved third-grade reading proficiency.
