Abstract
As parents play an integral role in students’ absenteeism, so do teachers. A large part of the day, for students, is spent in schools and with teachers. In this chapter, the focus is on discrimination in teacher-student interactions and its direct influence on minority students regarding their school attendance problems. The data used, literature findings, results, and recommendations are shared from a person-in-environment perspective. The authors recommend exploring discrimination in teacher-student interactions as one mechanism to respond to absenteeism.
