Plain-English Summary
Schools would receive federal funding and support to address chronic absenteeism—when students miss too many days of school—and to improve safety in their buildings. The money could be used for programs that help keep students engaged and attending class regularly, as well as initiatives to make school environments safer for both students and staff. This would primarily affect public elementary and secondary schools, students, teachers, and school administrators.
