  6. What Are The Gaps Here? • Poor student attendance due to illness, work, family transportation conflicts, and other personal issues. • Teacher-Student-Family conflicts that impact course success and/or graduation. • Course sequencing conflicts and courses not offered that restrict college entrance.
