Bastrop ISD reports 65% of identified leavers located in early recovery effort
Summary
Dr. Janel Morris told trustees the district located 65% of students classified as 'leavers' from the prior year and will continue documentation through the PEIMS Fall Resubmission (Jan. 16, 2025).
Dr. Janel Morris, Director of Student Services, briefed trustees on the district's Dropout Prevention and Recovery processes Sept. 17. She explained schools must identify students who did not return from the previous year (classified as 'leavers') and that the recovery program aims to track and reclassify those students as 'movers' when their status is confirmed. As of the meeting date, staff had located 65% of identified leavers.
Morris noted the initial outreach window runs from the first day of school through the final Friday in September and that campuses may continue gathering documentation through the PEIMS Fall Resubmission on Jan. 16, 2025. Attendance officers, service-center attendance staff and campus personnel are leading the search and documentation efforts.
