Truancy is a complex issue that continues to plague schools, and
many blame truancy problems on students, parents, and socioeconomic
factors. However, truancy is more than juvenile delinquents
skipping school to have fun or be with friends. In Fixing Truancy
Now: Inviting Students Back to Class, author Bruce S. Cooper posits
that truancy is an indication that school curricula and pedagogy
are not serving students needs as well as they should, especially
when it comes to ethnic minority students and English language
learners. This book explores: .different types of truancy; .major
research in the field; .and how teachers, school leaders, and
students can work together in solving this problem. Ultimately this
book offers hope that teachers, parents, and school leaders can
find solutions to this multifaceted problem through collaborative
problem-solving."
