A semi-structured interview form was used in the interviews with 10 teachers. The data collection tool applied to 155 students is the " "The Scale of Absenteeism Causes." Descriptive analysis technique was used in the analysis of qualitative data. In the analysis conducted of the study, it is observed that there is a difference between the reasons for absenteeism of boys and girls.
