哥谭人 | Almost half of New York City’s homeless students were chronically absent from school last year, according to an analysis published Monday by the group Advocates for Children of New York.

The data shows roughly 154,000 students in the city’s public schools during the 2024-2025 academic year were homeless, meaning they lived in shelters or “doubled up” with other families, marking a record high in a number that’s been climbing for a decade amid the city’s affordability crisis.
