Education is very important to every individual because it is way in order to reach the
bright future. It aims to give knowledge or information to the students for their future.
This serves as mechanism that molds the mind of individuals.

Education is not that easy, there are challenges that inevitable for students and becomes
their hindrance to commit what they want to reach and one of the challenges is the
absenteeism of students.

Absenteeism according to N. Crespo and the company in their book it has been defined as
the conscious and deliberated action of been away from the physical and classroom
conditioned for some factors that influence the search of alternatives to the use of time. A
term generally used to refer unscheduled absences of students from the school. But
students sometimes prefer to absent just to skip from their classes and to their school
works, duties, assignment, and rules. A pattern in missing school works in which they are
habitually and frequently doing it but not just students but also teachers sometimes.
Absenteeism does not include excused absences where students have a permission to
escape from class.

Absence nowadays cannot be separated from the individual called students.This absence
of phenomena, it is easy to see even likened it has become a necessity in the nature of
students. So it is not surprising if this habits continues to fall proceeds among school
students as example of primary, secondary and even at the university level, the problem
still persists.

research. In addition, to study and rises information of factor and effect student

CHAPTER II

REVIEW RELATED LITERATURE

According to ( Teasly,2004) absenteeism is a period of time when a student does not


attend school, students who do not attend school will generally fall when their classmates
in their academic success (Ford and Sutphen,1996) they have fewer opportunity to learn
the materials that will help them to succeed (Epstein and Sheldon,2002) the focus of
students absenteeism ranges from early schooling until adolescent years (Ford and
Sutphen, 1996).

Predictors of absenteeism and truancy can be found inside and outside of the school
environment. Bimler and Kirkland (2001), they indicated that there may be as many as
10 different ‘hot spots’ that can predict student absenteeism and truancy. These ‘hot
spots’ broadly include: school conditions; home-based behavioral issues; psychological
issues; family background; school-based behavioral issues; peer issues; as well as lack of
motivation or interest in school.

Absenteeism in students affects their school performances especially when they are in a
group of teamwork for their assignments and projects. Since grouping will help develops
the students cooperative and ability to share and gain knowledge from their group mates,
likewise, the group mates will also miss the opportunity gaining knowledge from the
absent students (Koppenhaver, 2003). .

account both qualitative and quantitative data collection strategies. “ Not only is it
perfectly possible to combine approaches within the same piece of research, but it is
often advantageous to do so” ( Saunders et al 2003 ).
The researcher tried to determine the reaction of the students in Grade 10, St. Therese
in St. Michael’s High School that are usually absent in class.

respondent’s test score and the total number of test items. The formula is,
𝑚
P= 𝑛 x 100%
