North Carolina Seeks Better School Attendance Statewide
Raleigh Aug. 28 Better school attendance should be a goal for schools and communities as the new term opens. J M Freeman state attendance director says last year only 75.5 percent of enrolled pupils attended daily, leaving 208 127 children out of school each day and 640 651 present. He urges parental cooperation and stricter daily attendance while noting city children attend six percent more than rural pupils and praising transportation and highways improvements to boost rates. The board aims to extend attendance beyond compulsory ages and reduce reliance on prosecution, stressing education's long term value.
