Some students in a Chandler school had more than 40 absences in a year

A Chandler elementary school’s new program is seeing positive changes amongst its students with high absences or high behavioral referrals. Every school day, twice a day, 6th grader Brisa is one of 29 students checking in with their educator mentor at Sanborn Elementary. The group, called the “Sun Squad,” was created by their principal, Adam McCoy, just last school year.
