Nationwide.
Indianapolis, IN — December 5, 2025 — Attendance USA, a leading provider of tools and
strategies designed to improve student attendance and engagement, today announced a new
partnership with National Professional Resources (NPR), a trusted publisher of educational
resources for K–12 professionals. Through this collaboration, Attendance USA will provide
high-quality content, strategies, and research-based guidance to be featured in NPR’s widely
used materials and professional development resources.
This partnership brings together two nationally recognized organizations dedicated to equipping
educators, families, and school communities with the tools they need to support consistent
attendance and meaningful student participation. Attendance USA will contribute
evidence-based content focused on:
● School Attendance: Practical strategies and insights to reduce chronic absenteeism
and promote a culture of showing up.
● Family Engagement/Stability: Approaches to building strong school–home
partnerships that empower families as key contributors to student success.
● Student Engagement: Techniques that foster connection, motivation, and active
participation in learning.
“We are excited to partner with National Professional Resources to amplify effective practices
that support student success,” said Carolyn Gentle-Genitty, Founder of Attendance USA. “By
combining our content expertise with NPR’s national reach, we can provide educators and
families with accessible, actionable tools that address the root causes of absenteeism and
promote stronger engagement at every level.”
National Professional Resources will integrate Attendance USA’s contributions into upcoming
Quick-Reference Guides, training materials, and professional development offerings. This
partnership underscores both organizations’ commitment to improving student outcomes and
supporting the whole child.
“Attendance USA’s mission aligns perfectly with our focus on delivering high-impact,
research-based resources for educators,” said Jason Scerbo, President and Owner of
National Professional Resources. “We look forward to bringing their valuable insights to
schools and districts nationwide.”
