Designed to provide volunteer, religious education teachers with several tools to increase attendance at early morning religious classes and counteract student absenteeism, the study developed a computerized roll and record keeping system, taught new teaching skills and methods, instructed the teachers to make personal contact with absentees within 24 hours, and introduced a reward and recognition program for students as well as encouraged make up work. The sample consisted of 34 teachers and 611 students in early morning religious classes held by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. At the conclusion of the practicum, the results indicated that attendance increased 3% compared to the same period the previous year. Both teachers and students expressed that rewards did not encourage attendance. Personal contact and make up work did the most to increase attendance. Teachers felt more secure and successful with the increased ability to use new teaching skills.
