A Boston Globe investigation found that sports tournaments and family travel are contributing to student absences in Massachusetts, alongside challenges such as mental health issues and immigration enforcement. A USC survey found high school students missed an average of more than three days for competitions and family trips, while one in five parents in a Boston Globe/Suffolk University poll said their child had missed school for sports. Though tournament absences alone may not meet the 18-day threshold for chronic absenteeism, they can add up; student athletes and parents said competition can feel like a race with few alternatives.
